The Christensen Fund (http://www.christensenfund.org/) has awarded Story Bases a major two-year grant under their global bio-cultural diversity initiative. This enables the company to start on plans for working with communities in Mali and Peru. Through their sponsorship it is now through the most difficult stage - of launching a new organisation.

They are building a team to grow the incubation activity around Stanford University under newly-appointed coordinator in California, Prasad Utturkar (softwareskills@gmail.com), but seeking further volunteer assistance especially in software - do contact us if you know anyone interested in helping.

Now we can start on the voyage to make our vision - of nurturing the oral heritage of minority cultures in a digital world - become a reality.
