clos_gm Jul 14 @ 6:25 PM EDT

Hi #GoogleEI!!! Great to see you all here! Sorry I'm late! Funding is a great topic to discuss! So far I think my only investment is time.

EdTechDeleon Jul 14 @ 6:25 PM EDT

A3: Costs for servers to run/hosting is key. Plus, additional services or human resources needed could arise too as the project 📈 #GoogleEI

BWhitlowEdTech Jul 14 @ 6:31 PM EDT

A4: actually writing a grant right now through a local non profit. I use @GetEdFunding to find outside resources too #googleEI

armstrongedtech Jul 14 @ 6:31 PM EDT
