Warm thanks to all donors and project participants! Please see final results on the leaderboard below.
What is the challenge?
Over the last two years, GlobalGiving has teamed up with Innocentive
and the Rockefeller Foundation to crowdsource
solutions to some of the most pressing problems facing communities around the world. Four GlobalGiving partner organizations
submitted the biggest challenges they're facing in their communities and Innocentive helped to crowdsource between 52 and 85 potential solution
ideas for each challenge from some of the most innovative thinkers on the planet. Now you can help these organizations test these solutions on the
ground in their communities. Donations to projects will be matched at 200% up to $1000 per person per project while $45,000 in matching funds remain.
