FYI - Pepsi Refresh Project set to give away $1 million in grants (via Charity Village)

I have not looked at this and not sure about the optics of pepsi supported country idea - but then again could be some hard cold cash to support some ideas!
 
Maybe this is like the TED ideas brought to you by a car manufacturer and in this instance it is a New ideas brought to you by the pop industry!  Either way, might be helpfull to some app & viz folks.

Pepsi Refresh Project set to give away $1 million in grants
May 25, 2010

Do you have an awesome project idea that needs support? Starting June 1st, the Pepsi Refresh Project invites Canadians to submit their ideas on how to move the country forward in a positive way. Pepsi will be giving away more than $1 million in grants over the next year to fund these ideas. Here's how it works:

  • The first 300 online submissions will be accepted from June 1 - 7, 2010.
  • Ten project ideas will be funded every other month in the amounts of $5,000, $10,000, $25,000, and $100,000. The top-voted project ideas become funded.
  • Does your project benefit the planet, education, arts and culture, food and shelter, neighbourhoods, or health?
  • Project ideas need to be based in Canada and benefit communities in Canada. The project must be implemented within 12 months.
