Wayahead staff do not participate in the assessment or decision-making process.
Applications are assessed against the following criteria: Innovation and creativity Community reach and engagement Alignment with the Mental Health Month theme involvement of people with lived experience of mental ill-health and/or people from marginalised groups in the planning and implementation of the project Before applying, please ensure that: Your organisation, group, or initiative is based in NSW or delivers services to NSW communities You are a community group, not-for-profit organisation, school, or local service Your proposed project or event will be delivered during Mental Health Month (October) Your activity aligns with the Mental Health Month theme You have the capacity to plan and deliver the project or event within the required timeframe You can provide formal invoicing documentation (e.g. tax invoice or equivalent) to receive grant funds You have a nominated contact person responsible for managing the grant You do not need prior experience running Mental Health Month events or professional grant-writing skills to apply.
The funding request is for ongoing operational costs (e.g. rent, wages, utilities) The funding is used to profit your organisation/group/community. Your organisation/group or initiative is not based in NSW/Does not benefit the NSW population You cannot provide an invoice If my organisation is based outside of NSW, but my event or project is being delivered in NSW, am I still eligible to apply for a grant? Yes.
If your event, project, or program is being delivered solely to a NSW-based population, you are eligible to apply for a grant. What if my target population relates to more than one category? You are encouraged to apply under the category that best aligns with your project or target population.
However, if the judging panel feels your application is better suited to a different category, they may recommend it be reassigned to a more appropriate category for assessment. Can I apply for multiple grants across different categories? Funding is allocated per program, project, or event, not per application or category.
This means that if the same initiative is submitted across multiple categories, it will only be considered for one and can only receive a single grant. If I’m not part of an organisation but represent a community group, can I still apply for a grant? Yes.
As long as you are able to provide an invoice, you are eligible to apply. The funding must be used directly to support the delivery of the project, program, or event. What if I am partnering with another organisation to deliver my project, program, or event?
We encourage partnerships in the delivery of your event, program, or project. Please ensure you clearly outline who you are partnering with, whether they are contributing financially, and the amount of any funding or support being provided. This will be on the application form.

-Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant applications from small business concerns (SBCs) that propose to develop, standardize, and validate new and innovative assays, integrated strategies, or batteries of assays that determine or predict specific organ toxicities (e.g., ocular, dermal, hematotoxicity, cardiotoxicity, gastrointestinal toxicity, hepatotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, olfactory loss, bladder toxicity, neurotoxicity, pulmonary toxicity, endocrine toxicity, and pancreatic beta cell toxicity), resulting from both acute and chronic exposures to various chemicals, environmental pollutants, biologics and therapeutic molecules or drugs. In addition, this FOA encourages the development, standardization, and validation of new models of arthritis, convulsion, infection and shock. New approaches for high throughput toxicity screening that involves the use of molecular endpoints, computer modeling, proteomics, genomics and epigenomics and the development of virtual tissues are also encouraged as are development of 3-dimensional organ models for toxicity evaluation. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the SBIR (R43/R44) grant mechanisms for Phase I, Phase II, and Fast-Track applications and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-09-007, which encourages applications under the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) (R41/R42) grant mechanisms. Funding Opportunity Number: PA-09-006. Assistance Listing: 93.113,93.173,93.361,93.389,93.837,93.846,93.847,93.848,93.849,93.859,93.867. Funding Instrument: G. Category: ED,ENV,FN,HL.
Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), issued by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), invites Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) cooperative agreement applications from small business concerns (SBCs) that propose to develop new, or to improve existing application(s) of nanotechnology-based therapeutics or/and in vivo diagnostics. This FOA will specifically support pre-clinical optimization and testing of these cancer-relevant nanotechnology applications against the intended cancer type. The proposed projects must be milestone-driven and must be clearly directed toward development of an ultimate commercial product. The outcomes are expected to advance the discovery and pre-clinical optimization phase so that an Investigational New Drug (IND) or Investigational Device Exemptions (IDE) application could be submitted to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) by the end or shortly after completion of the Phase II project period. To facilitate these steps, the NCI will assist the awardees in various ways, including the support through the NCI-sponsored Nanotechnology Characterization Laboratory. This FOA will NOT support basic research projects, studies on disease mechanisms, and clinical trials. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the SBIR (U43/U44) cooperative agreement mechanisms for Phase I and Phase II applications. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards.
