Impact Arcade Pilot Funding 2026

The Impact Arcade Pilot Funding offers a small grant to groups to host Impact Arcade events, where games are used to explore real-world issues and encourage action. Twenty selected groups receive funding to cover event-related expenses, with an emphasis on youth-led initiatives and community engagement. Additionally, groups that run an Impact Arcade and share their experiences may be eligible for a separate Impact Award in some cases.

$50 USD per selected group; possible $500 Impact Award for qualifying groups

Open to young people, youth groups, schools, community organizations, nonprofits, educators, and other youth-serving groups.

Submit an application through the pilot funding process; verify the authoritative deadline with organizers before applying
