They raised $100 each.
Together they had $1000 in cash.
Then they gave it all away in the park.

The Generosity Foundation is a project that aims to re-inspire creative thinking and action in everyday people by removing a small barrier and providing encouragement.

10 members of the Foundation met random people in a park and gave away small grants (10-60$) for creative projects thought up on the spot.

Instant grants were given to a merchant marine, two 10 year old girls, a US soldier on leave from Iraq, an accordion player from Alaska and around 40 others.

The grants helped people make paintings, drawings and other creative projects that may not have happened had they not accidentally bumped into the Generosity Foundation in a park.
