The RealNetworks Foundation has chosen five community organizations to receive a special Real Impact Award as part of the $505,000 the Foundation distributed this spring in its regular, competitive grants program.
The Real Impact Awardees, exhibiting best practices that lead to social change, were recommended by the employees who volunteer on the Foundation's Grant Review Team. The five organizations deliver services in four sectors: health, legal aid, education and the environment.
