Loveland is about to get Awesome! 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. Put a smile on people's faces with your project, or make them stop and think. Really, we just want to see how awesome you can be with your idea and a $1,000.

Submissions will be due by June 30th. The board of trustees will then review and vote for the top 6 finalists. All submissions will be made aware of their standing by July 7th.

The finalists agree to attend the Awesome Foundation Loveland Chapter's Pitch Night to present for a chance to win the $1000 prize. The first Pitch Night will occur on July 20th! The Pitch Night will be a fun event filled discussion on why are community is awesome and how you intend to make it even more awesome!

Finalists funding request pitches must be within 6 minutes each. Allotting for 3 minutes to pitch the idea and 3 minutes for questions. Submissions that lose can re-submit.

Things to consider with your application.

2.The money cannot be used for personal expenses or operating expenses for an established charity.

3.You agree to come back to the next Pitch Night and tell the community all about your project, thus inspiring future awesomeness.

Preference to projects that are highly visible and/or interactive, completed within Loveland, and enacted within 3 months of the grantee receiving the funding grant.*

(Hint for success: In your application, state very specifically, how your project will make Loveland even more awesome.)
