HistoryThe 11 member group from Ottawa came together with the plan to pool together funds every month and donate it to a person, group or organization in Ottawa with a good idea that will have a positive social, economic or environmental impact on the city. The first call for ideas was launched in November 2012. Past recipients include Sisters Achieving Excellence, a literacy program for at-risk women; EcoEquitable, and their project, bumbrella, which converts lost umbrellas into bicycle seat covers; and BibzGame, a program that gives young women training in website building and game development.[5] Board membersThe JustChange board members include: Mitchell Kutney, Louis Zuniga, Jesse Cressman-Dickinson, Alex Carr, Kasia Polanska, Ivy So, Davis Carr, Albert Thibodeau, Read Guernsey, Joshua Gillmore and Brittany Fritsch.[6] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.justchange.ca/about-us/ |title=About Us |publisher=JustChange |accessdate=August 17, 2013}} 2. ^{{cite news | url=http://metronews.ca/news/ottawa/541456/new-microgrant-group-invites-ottawa-to-justchange/ | title=New Microgrant Group Invites Ottawa to JustChange |work=Metro}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.ottawastar.com/small-change-makes-a-big-difference/ |title=Small change makes a big difference |work=Ottawa Star |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131020211808/http://www.ottawastar.com/small-change-makes-a-big-difference/ |archivedate=2013-10-20 |df= }} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.justchange.ca/apply/ |title=JustChange |publisher=justchange.ca |date= |accessdate=August 17, 2013}} 5. ^{{cite web|last=Stolte |first=Elise |url=http://www.ottawastar.com/small-change-makes-a-big-difference/ |title=Small Change Makes a Big Difference |publisher=Ottawa Star |date=August 11, 2013 |accessdate=August 17, 2012 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131020211808/http://www.ottawastar.com/small-change-makes-a-big-difference/ |archivedate=October 20, 2013 |df= }} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.justchange.ca/the-board/ |title=Archived copy |accessdate=2013-08-14 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130615140806/http://www.justchange.ca/the-board/ |archivedate=2013-06-15 |df= }} 3 : Philanthropic organizations based in Canada|Grants (money)|Microfinance |
