Summary
The Huo Family Foundation invites applications for special projects. These larger and longer-term research awards would allow researchers of all career stages, collaborating as a multi-disciplinary team with different expertise and skills, to take an integrated approach to tackle the more difficult questions in this domain. 

Proposals should be tackling key questions within the broad topic of the effects of usage of and exposure to digital technologies on brain development and function (including physiological responses), social behaviour and interactions, and mental health of children and young people.

Awarded research grants in this area can be held at colleges, universities and research institutes in the UK and in the US.

We are keen to support multi-disciplinary work. These teams may consist of several group leaders from one institution, or different institutions in the UK and the US. 

Eligibility 
PLEASE NOTE WE WILL CONSIDER ONLY ONE SPECIAL PROJECT PROPOSAL FROM EACH LEAD INSTITUTION. THE LEAD INSTITUTION IS THE COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OR RESEARCH INSTITUTE WHERE THE LEAD APPLICANT IS LOCATED.

E. Gornish and S. Spikes (School of Natural Resources and the Enivornment, Cooperative Extension)

At The Stocker Foundation, we're all about helping students from prekindergarten through eighth grade become curious lifelong learners. Our grantmaking supports 21st century reading literacy and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) activities that encourage kindergarten readiness, grade-level reading proficiency, creative thinking, and problem-solving skills. We believe that when all students have access to quality education, they develop a passion for learning, which paves the way for future opportunities.

In 2024, The Stocker Foundation’s Board of Trustees approved 199 grants totaling over $2 million to communities served. Our funding supports:

• The development of foundational reading and writing skills so that students can read at or above grade level by third grade
• Cross-disciplinary, project-based STEAM learning that connects subjects through hands-on experiences

We also set aside a small portion of our funding to help remove obstacles that might keep students from academic success.

The Stocker Foundation conducts one grant cycle annually. We welcome applications from organizations who share our passion for transforming educational opportunities for students who need them most.

Stage 1 (eligibility check) - September 30, 2025

These grants are not for a specific research project, but rather for personnel (i.e., a clinical research associate) or resources to allow more research to be done. These grants are intended for institutions with the potential to participate significantly more in childhood cancer clinical trials, but which are smaller or have barriers to greater participation due to a lack of resources. Applications to support Clinical Research Associate (CRA) type positions are preferred. Preference is given to institutions with high needs and low philanthropic support in geographical areas where St. Baldrick’s funds are raised. Institutions which do not currently receive other St. Baldrick’s grants are also given preference. (Grant will be $25,000–$50,000.)  

For full eligibility criteria, please see the RFA.
