The GOOD 30-Day Challenge: GOOD Citizenship

GOOD Maker wants to know how you will creatively engage others in the civic life of your community by promoting idea-sharing, collaboration and participation. Maybe you’ll revive a forgotten city tradition? Advocate for prettier public spaces? Organize a voter registration drive? Host a town hall meeting on local arts funding? We’re supporting this month’s 30-Day Challenge on civic involvement by offering a $500 grant to fund the best idea. Whether you’re a hometown hero or the new kid on the block, we believe you have what it takes to stir your fellow citizens to action.

Submissions for the GOOD Citizenship challenge are open from February 1-22 (noon Pacific Time). Voting will be open from February 22-29, so get ready to rally your networks behind your project.
