Sobre Nós

The Awesome Foundation is microphilanthropy in action. Ten people contribute $100 each to make $1000 available each month to fund awesomeness.

Since 2014, the Adelaide chapter has given around $100,000 to changemakers, creatives, community organisations and individuals who want to make a difference (even if it is just to bring joy to a group of people).

Let us know what you are planning, why it's awesome and how you plan to spend the money. This grant process is designed to be as simple as possible and there are no strings attached to receiving funding. Applications for metropolitan Adelaide and surrounds are preferred, though grants have been awarded for regional projects. Do not apply if you are based outside of South Australia (your application will be deleted).

PLEASE NOTE: Due to difficulties we have experienced with financial transactions, we are no longer accepting applications from people working in government-funded organisations, including schools. We will also never fund an application from outside of South Australia – you can try your local chapter instead (there are dozens of us globally).

Your need for the $1000 can be your catalyst for the bigger picture. But it won't fund:

• marketing for established projects
• travel or catering expenses
• submissions that don't show how the money will be used.
