We have an exciting update to share about Network Support Funds as we enter the FY25-26 grant cycle. We are transitioning to a new online grant management system, Fluxx, and moving away from the current platform (Wizehive). This change is part of a broader transition that OFB is undergoing to enhance the efficiency and experience of the grants management process.

To support a smooth transition, we will be pausing Rapid Response applications from September 8 - October 10. Rapid Response applications will resume on October 13 via Fluxx. The last day to submit a Rapid Response application will be September 5 on the current platform (Wizehive). During this time, if an urgent need arises, please email your strategist and we will work with you to complete an offline application.

We will push out the Capacity Building Grant application period to November 3, 2025 - January 16, 2026 to provide sufficient time to ensure Rapid Response is running smoothly and then open up CBG applications on Fluxx. 

We will host an NSF information session on October 1 from 11-12:30pm to provide an overview of the 2025-2026 NSF Program and a demonstration of how to navigate Fluxx. A calendar invite will be sent separately. Information below:

• Date and Time: Wed, Oct 1, 11am - 12:30pm

• Meeting Link: Join Zoom Meeting

• Recording: This meeting will be recorded for your reference.

We will provide more details on how to access NSF applications on Fluxx in September. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please reach out to your strategist. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we transition to this new system.
