[Mesh] BSC $10,000 Development Grant

[Mitar]

Hi!

I must say that filing for a coop status only to get this grant is a
bit... The idea of this grant is to help people who really believe in
cooperatives as means to a social change and need help with this. If you
really want and believe in cooperatives and you want to be a
cooperative, then this is a great opportunity.
