NEED SOME FUNDING?

Have a crazy brilliant idea that needs funding? The Awesome Foundation awards $1,000 grants every month. It couldn’t be simpler! Your idea is yours alone. They don’t want a stake in it. They just want to help you make it happen!

The Awesome Foundation is a global community advancing the interest of awesome projects in the universe, $1000 at a time.

Each fully autonomous chapter supports awesome projects through micro-grants, usually given out monthly. These micro-grants, $1000 or the local equivalent, come out of pockets of the chapter’s “trustees” and are given on a no-strings-attached basis to people and groups working on awesome projects.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY “AWESOME?”

Every chapter interprets “awesome” for itself. As such, awesome projects include initiatives in a wide range of areas including arts, technology, community development, and more. Many awesome projects are novel or experimental, and evoke surprise and delight. Awesome sometimes challenges and often inspires.

WHO CAN APPLY?

Anyone is eligible for a grant — individuals, groups, and organisations alike.
