Mocavo, a genealogy search engine and now a growing records site with its acquisition of ReadyMicro, is offering a $25,000 grant to enable other stewards of genealogical content to share their information.

Mocavo is seeking proposals from organizations with genealogical content, archives or historical records that they want to make freely available online.

The grant provides the recipient with $25,000 of digitization services from ReadyMicro, including digital media organized into a searchable database; unlimited display and distribution rights for the resulting digital media; and an online version of the database which may be presented on the grant recipient’s website. The information will also be shared at Mocavo’s site.

More information about the program, as well as the application form, can be found here. The deadline is February 28, 2013.
