Applications are running until 14th February.
This fund is supported by National Broadband Ireland and has awarded cash throughout the country in line with the national broadband plan
So far the fund has awarded 160 cash grants to schools, farms and small businesses.
New funding has given a focused effort for children in Donegal to benefit from new connectivity.
