About Us
The Santa Fe chapter of the Awesome Foundation is currently on hiatus and not accepting grant applications at this time. We will announce when the next grant cycle opens on our chapter page.
Please email santafe@awesomefoundation.org with any questions.
Please note: The chapter will ONLY consider those projects that can be fully funded with the $1,000 grant. If you are working with a larger budget, think of a specific, creative stand-alone element that the $1,000 can fully fund. Keep this in mind when you provide a detailed budget and timeline for your project. Thank you.
WHAT WE DON'T FUND - PLEASE REVIEW THE FOLLOWING. It's very important as we will not consider grant applications for:
~ Creating, publishing, or marketing your book
~ Small business loans
~ Travel expenses or business start up costs
~ Living expenses or purchases for personal use, stipends, car or home repairs, studio rental, etc.
~ Projects that are not based in Santa Fe. We invest locally.
~ Projects that do not provide a proposed budget and a timeline.
WHAT WE DO FUND
Our chapter is interested in funding projects with micro-grants of $1,000 that will enhance and impact Santa Fe in a positive, creative way. Projects can include efforts in a wide range of areas including science, technology, arts, social good, and much more. We like projects that are visible and have a clear community benefit. Your project should make an impact by helping others or creating a better environment for them.
We are looking for projects that:
~ Are actionable and achievable
~ Benefit Santa Fe
~ Can be completed within a reasonable time frame
~ Can be fully funded with the $1,000 grant
~ Are AWESOME!
Keep these guidelines in mind, and then surprise and delight us with your idea of how to make Santa Fe a better place to live, work, and play. Apply!
Would you like to contribute to our grant funding? We would love to have you as one of our "angel donors" - donors who want to contribute money to our Awesome grant funds but would rather remain behind the scenes. Our angel donors help support community projects and attend our grant award presentations and annual party. Contact us at santafe@awesomefoundation.org and we'll give you all the details.
