What Is An LOI?
A Letter of Intent, or LOI, provides us with a short summary of your upcoming request. That way, we can see if your project is a good fit before you apply for a grant.
Who Needs An LOI?
All new applications require a letter of intent. If you have have received a grant from AWS Foundation in the past, but not for the program/project you’re requesting, an LOI is still required.
