New Media Microgrant Awardees
Topics
When we launched this blog over two years ago and the projects will be managed by John Snow, Inc.Exit Disclaimer ). We received many, many excellent project ideas from across the country — from New York to Michigan to Hawaii and Alaska.
We will be working with these organizations over the coming months to share their new media efforts and lessons learned (through guest posts here on the blog, among other things).
