The Best Buy Community Grants Program provides support to community-based organizations that are located within 50 miles of a Best Buy facility<http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?id=cat12090&type=page>. Eligible programs must create hands-on learning opportunities for underserved teens to engage in learning, experimenting, and interacting with the latest technologies to build 21st century skills. Eligible programs must deliver community-based youth programs for teens, ages 13-18, during out of school time; and serve a diverse population. Examples of program activities include computer programming, digital imaging, music production, robotics, and gaming and mobile app development. The average grant amount is $5,000; grants will not exceed $10,000. Public and nonprofit community-based organizations (e.g., community centers, schools, and libraries) are eligible to apply. Online proposals may be submitted between June 1 and July 1, 2016. Visit the Best Buy website<https://corporate.bestbuy.com/community-grants-page/> to review the full program guidelines.
