[Libs-Or] Grant News: Micro-Grants Available to Public Libraries

[Darci Hanning]

Greetings!

I thought some of you might find this of interest:

The Awesome Foundation<http://www.awesomefoundation.org/en> is an ever-growing worldwide community devoted to "forwarding the interest of awesome in the universe." Created in 2009, the Foundation distributes $1,000 grants, no strings attached, to projects and their creators.

Library Pipeline's Innovation Committee<https://www.librarypipeline.org/innovation/> has partnered with the Awesome Foundation to found an Innovation in Libraries chapter<https://www.librarypipeline.org/innovation/innovation-microfunding/> that will, each month, award a $1,000 micro-grant to a project that suggests creative solutions, proposes a new way of thinking about library services, and supports underserved and diverse communities. Grant applications due by the 15th of each month, with awardees announced by the 1st of the following month.

More details available here: http://www.webjunction.org/news/webjunction/innovation-in-libraries-micro-grants-from-awesome-foundation.html

Cheers,
Darci
