Would you spend it on ridding the world of toxic dumps, building schools or saving an endangered species?
The new campaign, “100&Change”, will award a the grant to a single proposal designed to help solve a critical issue. The inaugural competition is open to organizations - individuals or government agencies need not apply - around the world. Each valid proposal will be reviewed by a panel of expert judges from a variety of fields.
