The Awesome Foundation Sydney (AFS) loves funding projects that make Sydney more awesome.
A global network of micro-giving chapters that give $1,000 of their own money every month to awesome projects. We're the Sydney chapter!
We fund out-there ideas that make Sydney more awesome. The ideas sometimes aren't so absurd: they can be super sensible, too. The catch? There isn’t one: there are no strings attached.
Since our foundation in 2011, the Sydney chapter has received more than 1,600 micro-grant applications and given away over $100,000. We also helped put on the first-ever Australian Awesome Summit. That's a whole lot of awesome.
Generally, we avoid funding salaries, websites, travel and ideas where the budget doesn’t make it clear enough how the money will be used.
Application deadline
Applications close at 6.30pm on the first Wednesday of every month (but do check our Facebook in case we move the deadline a day or two). The winner will be notified on the night.
