You must be a professional martial arts instructor or gym owner working in the United States. Non-citizens are welcome to apply.

• Be specific: Give us some details on how you will create and manage this program.

• Be different: We love free kids classes and anti-bullying programs, but those are common ideas… if that’s what you want to create, is there a way you can make it unique?

• Be sustainable: Better Fight will not support your program forever. When the grant money runs out, how will you continue to provide this service?

We will begin accepting applications on October 1st. At that point, applicants will have the month of October to submit. After the October 31st deadline, Better Fight will take 2-3 weeks to consider the applicants and determine who will advance to the second round, during which we will arrange live interviews. These interviews will be conducted at the end of November and beginning of December. Grantees will be chosen soon after, and notified before the end of the year.

Grants will be in the $5,000-$15,000 range.

Please reach out to us at info@betterfight.org and we’ll be happy to chat further.
