National Instruments engages in strategic, consistent collaborations with community organizations to help affect positive change in the global community. Each year, NI contributes more than 1 percent of pretax profits to nonprofit organizations. The company also donates in-kind gifts such as software and hardware to nonprofit organizations.
Most giving is initiated through a once-a-year grant request application process that allows NI to focus its corporate philanthropy and maximize relationships with long-standing community nonprofit partners. Unsolicited proposals are seldom funded. However, if your organization meets the eligibility and program guidelines and is focused on one of the giving areas listed below, you can submit an application by no later than August 10.
To apply for funding from National Instruments, please complete the grant request application and submit it by e-mail to Community.Connections@ni.com.
