freeFormed and Echoing Green

Megan, Jadie and I just found out that we have been accepted into the second phase of the Echoing Green Fellowship competition. Echoing Green awards 20 two-year fellowships to entrepreneurs creating new social change organizations. Fellows receive up to $90,000 in seed funding and technical support to turn their innovative ideas into sustainable organizations.

We are really excited to have gotten past the initial application process. About 700 to 1000 apply yearly and 150 to 300 organizations are accepted into the second phase. It couldn't be happening at a better time either, as Jadie and I are in the very long process of converting the freeFormed architecture to Drupal.
