It is intended to complement the Major Grants program (also known as Zcash Community Grants) by providing a source of funding for smaller grants. Hopefully, this will reduce the number of minor grant grants that are submitted to the ZCG, allowing them to focus their attention on larger, more controlled grants that are more in line with what the Major Grants program financially intends. Additionally, I would like to create a channel for subordinating titles that are not directly related to Zcash, but that explore broader applications of zero-knowledge proofs or other approaches to financial privacy, in line with our charitable purpose. + +**The Application Process** + +Applications should be submitted through the ZF concessions platform and applicants should agree to sign the ZF concession agreement and go through the ZF KYC process if the application is successful. + +The deadline for submitting a grant application is 22 February 2023, 9:00 am UTC on Monday 20 March 2023. + +**voting process** + +on April 17 We have published the list of grant applications that will be submitted to ZCAP for approval + +**list of grant applications** + +[Algorithmic Anthropometry](https://zfnd.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Algorithmic_Anthropometry.pdf) + +[Aprendamos de Criptos y Blockchain](https://zfnd.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Aprendamos_de_Criptos_y_Blockchain.pdf) (trans.
