What’s the Knight Community Information Challenge? In 2008, Knight Foundation launched a five-year, $24 million initiative aimed at encouraging community foundations to embrace information as a core community need. It challenges community foundations to grasp the depth and pace of the change the media world is undergoing, and to take account of how this affects a community’s ability to manage its’ affairs and address opportunities. The Challenge encourages experimentation, involvement in forms of new media and technology, and civic leadership. A match is required.
