Winners will receive cash awards of $15,000 (first place), $10,000
(second place), and $5,000 (third place) to further develop and
implement their ideas.

The Microsoft Mobile Challenge for Development encourages you to help
contribute to one of the eight United Nations Millennium Development
Goals by creating a mobile solution designed to meet the needs of
people in developing communities and help solve some of the toughest
problems facing our world today!
The submission form is presently open and will close on May 15th.
