Bloomington Proposal Deadline Extended to Wednesday, March 3rd!

February 26th, 2010

In case you are just hearing about Soup Stock for the first time – fear not!  We’ve extended our deadline for proposals for the Bloomington, Indiana Soup Stock to Wednesday, March 3rd at 5pm.

Don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding your idea.  No idea is too small when executed with conviction.

Soup Stock grants are open to artists, entrepreneurs, creative problem-solvers, and anyone else who thinks outside-the-box.  Let us know about your ideas!

Get a Grant from your Community!

February 25th, 2010

There is a little over one day left to submit to Soup Stock #1 and we are still looking for proposals.  Please submit your ideas and give yourself the opportunity to be funded by your peers.

No long grant proposals.  No endless maze of bureaucracy.  Just a two-hour event where you get to meet those people who are interested in funding the creative actions of their own community.  Guests will read your proposal and be given the chance to vote for their favorite.

If your proposal is selected you will walk out the door with cash to start your project immediately.  In return, you will document your project and post reports to the Love Factory blog so that your benefactors and community can keep up with your progress.

We can’t wait to re your proposals, so don’t leave us hanging.  Send them in today!

Are you thinking of submitting something to Soup Stock, but not sure exactly what we’re looking for?  We’ve added some links to our site featuring the other regional micro-granting opportunities which Soup Stock was modeled after.  Check out examples of projects that have been funded through these organizations for inspiration.

If you are still feeling stuck, shoot us an email!
