Grants of $1,000 with "no strings attached" are awarded by the Awesome Foundation, an idea established in 2009 in Boston and growing with 69 chapters worldwide. Nearly 7,500 projects have been funded by the foundation, with the goal of supporting "brilliant" ideas every month. The program is open to individuals, groups, and organizations.
Examples of funded projects include the Free Little Art Gallery in Massachusetts; Art-O-Mat Creative Community Exchange in New York City; and, the CIRQUE VOLAER pre-professional aerial arts program in San Antonio.
