Got Solutions?

Ok, we all know Washington, DC, isn't perfect. As much as we love the city, we all have a few ideas of how to make it better. Well, now is the time to share those ideas, and you just may receive $5,000 for it.

DC Appleseed has a project called "Solving DC Problems" which is giving rewards for whomever comes up with DC's biggest problems and a solution. The project is sponsored by the June and Jon Hechinger Family Trusts and donors to the Community Foundation for the National Capital Region.

The problems and solutions will be voted on by online readers (so get all your friends to vote for your idea) and the winners get to present their ideas to the mayoral candidates in a forum in June. Send as many as you want, but you only have until May 5.
