The Atlantic | Most Intriguing Finalists from Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Mayors Challenge
The Atlantic announced its top eight choices for the Bloomberg Philanthropies’ Mayors Challenge. The City of San Francisco is in the running for a $5MM prize, which would be used for its proposed program to put locals to work (and be recognized for their contributions with badges). The magazine writes:
Why We Like It: While the challenges of implementing such a program would no doubt be great, this is perhaps the most ambitious project proposed in the Mayors Challenge. Shifting job-seekers away from intimidating employment centers and toward realistic on-site training opportunities has enormous potential.
