In addition to being awarded funding, every applicant that applies to start an idea in their community will receive a range of supports including:

• A 5 step starter guide for your chosen project


• Free tech tools & website to help get your project started and manage your group


• Advice & support via email and Zoom

The Challenge is open to existing groups and individuals in Denmark (once they form a team) to start new projects in their community, from the portfolio of ideas on the ChangeX site.

Examples of eligible groups include schools, universities, colleges, daycares, churches or other faith-based organizations, hospitals and hospital rehabilitation centres, mental health facilities, community gardens, neighbourhood groups, senior centres, and community centres.

If you are applying to start one of the proven portfolio ideas, you will need to complete a 30 Day Challenge and an Impact Challenge to receive funding to get your selected project off the ground.

The steps to complete the 30 Day Challenge include:

• Scheduling a 15 min call with one of the ChangeX team


• Recruiting 4 people to join your team


• Hosting a casual kick-off virtual meeting


• Sharing a team photo (screenshot from virtual meeting) & a short action plan

If you are applying with your own project, there will be a review process, and those applications that best fit the criteria will be allocated funding. You will then complete a simplified 30 Day Challenge and an Impact Challenge to receive your funding.
