No, I’m not kidding. There is indeed an Awesome Foundation that gives out a monthly grant to someone, anyone, who can come up something awesome to do. Here is an idea of what they look for:

Submit an awesome idea. If we pick it, we’ll give you $1,000 in cash. Yup, $1,000. Cash. Maybe even in a brown paper bag. You’ll also get access to coworking space at BetaHouse for the month of your grant. The only condition is that you be willing to tell us (and some of our friends) about what you did a month later. If we don’t pick it, don’t stress. We’ll pick a new awesome idea next month.

So put your thinking caps on and be as awesome as you know how to be. And support this and so many other charities that are doing their best to give back.
