Awesome Foundation Santa Cruz Grant

The Awesome Foundation Santa Cruz Chapter awards no-strings-attached $1,000 grants to brave, creative and inspiring projects that impact the Santa Cruz County community. Grants prioritize art-based and community-focused projects by individuals and small groups and are intended to fund a specific project or a component that can be fully covered by $1,000. Winners are asked to provide photos and updates suitable for inclusion on the chapter website and must have a PayPal account to receive funds.

US$1,000 grant; opportunity to have project photos and updates published on the chapter website.

Individuals and small groups proposing projects that will impact Santa Cruz County; the chapter does not fund personal expenses, small business operations, or projects within an established organization. Projects must be able to be fully funded (or a specific key component fully funded) with $1,000.

Submit a proposal via the Awesome Foundation submissions portal indicating the Santa Cruz chapter; include project impact details and a budget showing that $1,000 will fully fund the project or a key component.
