The key objectives comprise of onboarding five volunteers with skills in grant research within a six-week timeframe. This would involve implementation of an efficient virtual onboarding process, conducting remote interviews, and advertising the volunteer positions widely.

The team is expected to daily research on suitable grants, submit preliminary applications to the top opportunities, and analyze each for viability and relevance.
A third objective is based on the conduction of three training sessions on grant search and application strategies.
