About Us

The San Antonio, TX chapter of The Awesome Foundation was formed in May 2012. Our mission is to promote awe, wonder, and inspiration in the San Antonio community by awarding $1,000 grants every month. We accept applications on a rolling basis, select finalists and invite them to our monthly pitch parties to present their projects for a chance to win our grant.

What’s a Pitch Party?

A Pitch Party is when our finalists, based on the pool of applications, come to pitch their awesome ideas or projects to an audience and our trustees. Our trustees then do a brief Q&A with the finalists for any additional information that can help with the decision process. Next, our trustees discuss and choose up to the winner(s) of our no-strings-attached $1,000 grant.

IMPORTANT DATES

2/18 | FEBRUARY APPLICATION DEADLINE

3/18 | MARCH APPLICATION DEADLINE

UPCOMING EVENTS

Finalists will be selected from applications submitted and notified. Due to a number of applications received, we are unable to notify applicants who did not make it to the next round. However, we do encourage all applicants to reapply and be considered for our next pitch party. Keep an eye on our Facebook page for updates.

Have Questions?

You can always email us at contact@awesomesa.org.

What counts as awesome?

The Awesome Foundation forwards the interest of awesome $1,000 at a time. But what does this mean? We’re looking for ideas or projects that stand out from the crowd, that provoke awe, wonder and inspiration within the community and bring it together. Check out our past winners above for examples.
