Dear HOT, I'm very happy to announce the official launch of Microgrants 2020. From now through January 1st, HOT’s annual fundraising campaign will support communities by raising funds that get disbursed to community projects as small grants. Called "Microgrants", these funds enable communities to put themselves on the map in OpenStreetMap literally and figuratively while addressing the challenges affecting them, from seasonal flooding and wildfires, to preventing gender-based violence, and responding to disease outbreaks. In the past three years, your donations have directly supported 24 communities across 22 countries with over US$100,000. By donating, you will provide these communities with the technology, training and equipment they need to make sure no one is left behind. Check out the projects here: http://donate.hotosm.org/ Now - it's up to all of us in the HOT community to help get them to their funding goals! 100% of donations go to the communities themselves. HOT does not have institutional donors that fund this initiative, so your personal contributions really matter, and affect the success of each community's project. If you are not able to give financially at this time, a simple thing you can do is to share on social media and tell one other friend or family member about the campaign. #MaptheDifference Tyler *Tyler Radford* Executive Director tyler.radf...@hotosm.org @TylerSRadford *Humanitarian OpenStreetMap Team* *Using OpenStreetMap for Humanitarian Response & Economic Development* web <http://hotosm.org/> | twitter <https://twitter.com/hotosm> | facebook <https://www.facebook.com/hotosm> | donate <https://donate.hotosm.org>
