Japanese-Language Teaching Materials Purchase Grant

This program is intended to assist educational institutions in the U.S. to purchase teaching materials (textbooks, audio-visual materials, dictionaries, teachers' reference books, etc.) for their Japanese-language courses by providing financial support not exceeding $1,000.

First, the applying institution (hereafter "applicant") should submit an Application Form and a Wish List which includes titles, unit price, quantities, and estimated total cost to acquire the materials on their own (including tax, shipping/handling charges). Please do not purchase anything at the time of application, and wait until the Japan Foundation (JF) provides the grant result before actually purchasing materials.

The grant payment (a reimbursement check) will not be provided until the grant recipient submits the required documents such as proof of purchase (receipts, invoices, etc.), final report, and a sample lesson plan which has been developed using the newly acquired teaching materials. Please also note that the reimbursement check will be made payable to the applying institution, not to an individual.
