1907 Foundation International

Our primary program is the Trailblazer award. We did not issue a new award in this fiscal year, however our follow up on previously issued Trailblazer recipients indicates that following our initial funding the first cohort had a 30 times increase in funding and the second cohort had a 2 times increase in their first year. These projects most likely would not have received funding if not for the Trailblazer award.

The Charity identified a need for a grant management system that would allow researchers to apply a single time for multiple grant opportunities. The program also provides for blinded application review to remove any bias from the funding process. This software is being developed by the charity and will in future will be licensed to multiple funding organizations. The current expenses are being capitalized on the balance sheet with amortization straight line over five years.

The Foundation hired a full time Software Developer to create a donation platform for fundraising. 1907 Foundation is currently using this software for a fund raising program called Mentally Tough.
