Dynamic Edge Announces 2008 Technology Grant Program

September 19, 2008

Dynamic Edge is pleased to announce the launch of our 2008 Technology Grant Program. Established in 2007, the program assists local non-profit organizations fund a project they may have put aside due to funding issues, lack of expertise, or both. Last year, Dynamic Edge awarded grants totaling $7,500 to several agencies in the Detroit Metro and Ann Arbor areas. This year, we have increased that amount to $10,000 in order to extend grant awards to the greater Nashville area (home of the newest Dynamic Edge office) as well.

Through the Technology Grant program, Dynamic Edge will help local non-profit organizations fund a project they may have put aside due to funding issues, lack of expertise, or both. Dynamic Edge aims to assist local non-profits by (1) provide start up funding for a specific IT project, (2) helping  organizations assess and budget for their long term IT needs, and (3) assessing and improving an existing technology project.

“In the current economic climate, we feel that small businesses need to come to the aid of our non-profit community partners,” said Bruce McCully, owner. “Quality of life and community are very important to Dynamic Edge, and we have made community service part of our ongoing business goals.” 

Applications for the Technology Grant Program will be accepted online through October 15, 2008. Additional details about the program, as well as application instructions for the grant awards are available at www.dynedge.com/tech_grant.html.

In 2007, DE gave the award to various different organizations in the area, including: the National Kidney Foundation of Michigan, 826 Michigan, the Hope Clinic of Ypsilanti, Special Days  Camp, and the Firehouse Museum. For additional information, contact: Debra Berman.
