All AMA grant and scholarship applications are moving to a new, user-friendly platform. To prepare for this transition, AMA's current grant application site will close on Thursday, August 28, 2025, at 5 p.m. EDT. Grant applications will remain closed August 29-31 and reopen on Monday, September 1, 2025.
The new grant software, Good Grants, will streamline the grant application, review, and judging processes. Logging in will be simpler and applications will automatically be saved after the first page is completed. The AMA Foundation and Education teams are excited to make applying for grants and scholarships easier for our members and clubs.
Club Recognition and Reward Grant, Disaster Relief Grant, and Al Kanser AMA AED Save a Life Grant applications will be accessible on September 1. These grants are open year-round. Applications for AMA Scholarships, Take off And Grow Grants, and Flying Site Improvement Grants will open at 12:01 a.m. (EDT) October 1, 2025, and will not be available until that time. They are slated to close February 1.
We will not change the locations of where the grants and scholarships can be found or where information about them is located. Visit https://amafoundation.modelaircraft.org/grants to learn more. You may contact AMA Foundation Deputy Director Rachelle Haughn or AMA Education Development Coordinator Gwen Mathis with questions.
