The Awesome Foundation and Jeff Waldmen
The Awesome Foundation provides one $1000 grants each month for awesome projects. No strings attached and claims no ownership over the projects it supports. It is, in the words of one of their trustees: “A micro-genius grant for flashes of micro-brilliance.”
For a foundation with a mission statement of:
“Forwarding the interest of Awesome in the universe,
$1,000 at a time.”
…they seemed a perfect fit for Jeff Waldmen whose swingsetting.org project has already tackled: San Francisco, Panama, and as seen here in this video, Los Angeles with a single concept: “Swings are Awesome”…
So a few months back, awesome met awesome, and some surprising smiles were found to spread
