winners will receive $500 with only two thin strings attached : (1) WHEN IT WORKS BEST FOR YOU,
please, Pay it Forward to someone else and (2) Please, let me hear from you when you do Pay
it Forward.
The discernment process of choosing each winner is profound,
powerful and difficult. Thanks in advance, for understanding this. And know that anyone who didn't win this July
Pay it Forward Grant is not only welcome, but encouraged to apply for the next one.
Our previous
winners include publishers, authors, "gifts that benefit charities" organizers, community leaders, entrepreneurs
and young people who simply "get It" and want to share It.
The next Pay
it Forward Grant will be awarded January 1, 2010. Please have your application to me by December 15,
