Do you have a project that needs funding, is noncommercial in nature, and benefits the Internet community within the ARIN service region? Apply now for a 2026 ARIN Community Grant.
The ARIN Community Grant Program provides financial grants in support of operational and research projects that improve the overall Internet industry and user environment, advancing ARIN's mission and broadly benefiting the ARIN community within our region. Projects must fit into one or more of these four broad categories:
-
Internet technical improvements that promote and facilitate the expansion, development, and growth of the infrastructure of the Internet consistent with the public interest
-
Registry processes and technology improvements that help maintain a globally consistent and highly usable Internet number registry system
-
Informational outreach that advances the Internet on topics such as, but not limited to, IPv6 deployment, Internet research, and Internet governance
-
Research related to ARIN's mission and operations
For 2026, the ARIN Board of Trustees has approved a total expenditure of up to US$50,000 for grants of varying amounts, from $1,000 to $20,000, based on project need. We invite you to learn more about ARIN's Community Grant Program and to find the link to the application form at: https://www.arin.net/grants.
The call for applications is open now through 14 June 2026. Applicants should clearly demonstrate how their projects meet eligibility guidelines and selection criteria in the application form to improve chances of selection.
ARIN looks forward to funding important projects through the ARIN Community Grant Program in 2026.

ARIN
