Open Call for 2024 Software Development Grant (pr05): ‘New Beginnings’
Application Deadline: Friday, May 31, 2024, 11:59 PM EST
We are excited to announce pr05 (pronounced “pros”), a new grant and mentorship initiative by the Processing Foundation designed to support the professional growth of early to mid-career software developers through hands-on involvement in open-source projects. This is a unique opportunity to grow as a developer while making a tangible impact on software projects used by millions of creatives, artists, educators, and students globally.
Participation in the program is entirely online and we invite developers from around the world to apply. A total of five candidates will be invited to join our 2024 cohort.
The topic of this year’s program is ‘New Beginnings’, focusing on supporting projects that will enhance and solidify the Processing and p5.js ecosystems and help lay strong foundations for their futures. See the Project List.
Selected candidates will receive a $10,000 stipend to allow them to spend 200 hours over a period of 4 months on their contributions. Grantees will also join regular cohort meetings and town halls together with our 2024 Fellowship cohort.
