Apply for the November Tanda Ca$h! : $596.62 ***  Donate for December Tanda Ca$h!

 

 

 

Hello, we are Tanda Foundation

Tanda Foundation is an experimental and informal not for profit held and run by its users. We aim to found new ways and means to support creative practice, without relying in institutional inertia (or the lack of it) and encouraging our members to give small donations to build a public fund for support our creative practice and decide our own cultural agenda. The Foundation aims to be an accountable platform of funding for its users, where the process of application, reviewing, voting, and collection of funds is accesible to all its Patrons and Candidates.


The Foundation relies on 2.0 infrastucture to exist with minimal costs and labor. Think in an automatic not-for-profit.


For more information about our Grant 2.0 system, please visit our F.A.Q. section. Also we have a Desk dedicated to the administration and Works section, ready to showcase the projects funded and some documentation about our simple mechanisms for collect funds for the inaugural Tanda.
