Huge props for surfacing this kind of niche opportunity. The fact that all it takes is an email with photos and a story makes it way more accesible than most grants I've come across. I applied to something similar a few years back and the narrative component ended up mattering more than a fancy portfolio. Glad to see funders recognizing that early-stage makers need supoprt before they have polished presentations.

Niche awards have become some of my favorite to share. It gives me lots of hope that any interest can get funding.
