The Montreal Urban Ecology Center, in partnership with the One Earth and Center for a New American Dream is now accepting applications for the 2014 Get2gether Neighborhood Challenge.

MUEC, in association with ioby, will help your team raise funds for a project to improve your neighborhood and will match the funds raised by each selected team up to $2,000.
All selected winners will begin the project process in August 2014 by attending two custom, ioby-led webinar trainings on crowdfunding. Whatever amount the teams raise through this process will be matched dollar-for-dollar by MUEC up to $2,000. The winners typically reach their goal and more within four weeks!
