[consulting] Advice on finding funding for social change app

[Jeremy Blanchard]

Hey friends,

I'm looking for advice on finding employment/grants/consulting work to
create a tool for activists to manage their projects.

http://activismlabs.org

Basic idea: Project management tools to combine the Google
docs/calendar/groups lifestyle of an activist into one coherent, simple to
help them more effectively create change.

I had a chance to begin this project as a Google Summer of Code student with
Drupal this summer. I'm graduating before the end of the year and I'm
seeking ways that I could find funding/grants/employment/food stamps that
will allow me to keep working on Activism Labs in one form or another. I'm
deeply passionate about seeing this tool exist.

Questions:

   - Do you know of any drupal shops/grants/bags of money with $ signs on
   them/anything else that would allow me to pursue this vision?
   - Who else should I be asking these questions to?
   - Any general advice for finding funding for a project that you've
   already dreamed up?

Any and all advice is welcome.

Thanks all!
