MC!T makes grants on an invitation-only basis and periodically utilizes a competitive RFP process. We invest in best-of-breed social organizations meeting the following criteria:
Criteria for Grant Consideration:

- A strong management team with leaders from the nonprofit and technology sector;
- At least two years of successful operating history;
- Earned income accounting for at least twenty percent (20%) of total revenues;
