Coming Summer 2017

Have a crazy brilliant idea that needs funding? We award $1,000 grants every year. It couldn't be simpler! Your idea is yours alone. We don't want a stake in it. We just want to help you make it happen!

We all know how Awesome it is to live, work and play in the City of Youngstown! This dedicated group wants to help those who can make our community even better with just a little help from some friends.

Awesome Foundation Youngstown will be giving out an annual grant (in its first year) of $1000 to an individual or group who can articulate and deliver great projects to make our City even more vibrant and awesome to live in. Have an idea? Please fill out an application!!

Please note that we do not typically fund: travel, salaries, or living expenses. PLEASE ALSO NOTE THAT PROJECTS BASED IN THE CITY OF YOUNGSTOWN TAKE PRIORITY. Applicants that are located out of our service area (Eastern Ohio & western Pennsylvania counties Beaver, Lawrence, and Mercer) must have a local partner and project located within our coverage area for their proposals to be considered.

If you have a question about the application process, please email us at youngstown@awesomefoundation.org. Those unable to complete the application online are encouraged to e-mail as well.

The Awesome Foundation is an ever-growing worldwide community devoted to forwarding the interest of awesome in the universe. Created in the long hot summer days of 2009 in Boston, the Foundation distributes $1,000 grants, no strings attached, to projects and their creators. At each fully autonomous chapter, the money is pooled together from the coffers of ten or so self-organizing “micro-trustees” and granted in cash, check, or gold doubloons.

Studio gruppen is AWESOME

Studiogruppen tog emot The Awesome Foundations stipendie i April 2015 med motiveringen / The studio group received The Awesome Foundations grant for April 2015 with the motivation:  "There is a need for safe spaces for the queer and trans community in Stockholm. The good people at Apelns Graf has identified this and decided to do something about it. This something has taken the shape of a music studio in Värtahamnen. A studio they’re building with their own bare hands." http://www.awesomefoundation.org/en/projects/45760-apelns-grafs-studio
