Examples of areas of interest include (but are not limited to): the increase in public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of the chemical sciences; innovative approaches to chemistry education at all levels (K-12, undergraduate, and graduate); and efforts to make chemistry careers more attractive. Research proposals are not customarily considered.

Aspects of proposals that are important are:

• broad applicability beyond the submitting institution
• specific and detailed descriptions of the chemistry associated with the proposal
• uniqueness of the project
