The 2012 Awesome Summit consists of a 2 day internal summit and a 1 day external event.
Saturday
Opening remarks
This is the third birthday of the Awesome Foundation. It's like "a sperm donor family reunion" - everyone is loosely connected. Why are we here? To get together, meet each other, make new friends, and make connections across chapters. We also have people from all five continents!
What are we going to do? We don't have rules. If something isn't happening and you want it to happen, do it. This includes photography and and live blogging.

What makes us Awesome
What makes the Awesome Foundation awesome?
- Low barriers to entry, for both applicants and participants
- Trustees aren't philanthropists, don't see themselves that way
- Makes philanthropy accessible
- Easy app for grantees, people who don't think of themselves as grant recipients
- "I don't have an $100,000 idea, but everyone has a $1000 idea"
- P2P giving from one average person to another
- Grant recipients have become trustees, it's interchangeable
- Constant experimentation
- We all innovate on the model
- Unofficial motto: "what's the worst that could happen?"
- Anyone can start an AF, huge amount of biodiversity
- Fun
- It's actually fun to be in the Awesome Foundation
IHAS
IHAS is a backend for the Awesome Foundation that allows the AF to maintain its nebulous, loosely organized nature. IHAS does things so that chapters don't have to. Basically, IHAS is Kitten Voltron.
Awesome Summit: Assemble
- 26/45 active chapters
- 4 fledgling chapters
- 5 continents
- We have exactly exponential growth so far
- Most of the time spent in working groups, one of the most productive Christina has ever been to
- Meta-Awesome grant - winner Ponzi Awesome
Awesome Summit: Connect
Goals:
- Build community
- Cover unique issues
- Build organizational APIs
Spirit of the conference: JFDI (Just .. Do It)
