'''
Due Date''': New York Grant, closes 4/30/10 and LA Video Grant, closes 6/30/10 6/30/09
Amount: The budget ceiling is $500,000. They fund shorts, docs and independent features under this amount. They want films that are unique and make a contribution to society. They fund compelling stories about little known subjects, historical films and films that “touch hearts”. They like films that expose and bring important information to light, we like films on little know people when there is a good story. The main criteria for entering and winning grants involve stories that can change and stories that can heal and enrich lives. 
MoFo Overview on Grant: A-/B + (it’s a slightly touchy-feely grant)
