Today we announced a $505,000 award to CRWNMAG to provide digital content for Black women delivered in an authentic voice by a trusted platform. Sustainable web monetization that fosters financial inclusion for creators will be a key feature of the publication’s digital transformation, reflecting Interledger’s core mission.
We are excited to announce that the Interledger Foundation’s Grant for the Web program has awarded five new projects that explore Web Monetization in the fields of culture, art, and technology, all while introducing more people to the idea of better business models for the web.
Through the Grant for the Web program, the Interledger Foundation aims to fund innovation supporting openly-networked payments on the web using the Interledger Protocol and the Web Monetization standard. To that end we are excited to announce that our next public Call For Proposals is open as of Monday July 26th and will run through September 22nd.
This time last year we were in the middle of our first open call for proposals, transitioning from an idea to a real program. We wanted to be making grants in the world, we wanted to be managing projects, and we wanted to be building community.
Grant for the Web announces 26 recipients from our Second Chance call for proposals.
