Hey all you do-good web innovators and entrepreneurs!
American Express is gearing up for its Members Project again this year. They are looking for projects that are, "innovative, achievable, and can make a positive impact in one of the following areas: Arts & Culture, Community Development, Education, Environment & Wildlife, and Health." Last year, one of the finalists was DonorsChoose, a site that connects public school teachers' needs with donors.
American Express cardmembers can submit their project idea between July 22-August 19th. The project that receives the most votes from cardmembers will receive $1,500,000. Second place receives $500,000, third place receives $300,000 and the two remaining finalists will receive $100,000.
