About the program

The Solana Foundation funds projects that make the network easier to build on and more resilient. Grants usually support open-source code, developer tooling and educational resources.

Funding is tied to milestones agreed at the start, so teams know what is expected before work begins.

What they fund

  • Developer tooling and SDKs
  • Validator and RPC infrastructure
  • Open-source reference apps
  • Education in underserved regions

Who can apply

  • Individuals and teams worldwide
  • Code released under an open-source license
  • A clear plan with measurable milestones
  • Previous shipped work helps but is not required

How applying works

  1. Submit a proposal

    Explain what you will build, why it matters to Solana and what it will cost.

  2. Review call

    The grants team discusses scope, timeline and technical approach with you.

  3. Agree on milestones

    Deliverables and payment amounts are fixed in a grant agreement.

  4. Build and get paid

    Each completed milestone unlocks the next payment.
