We're used to hearing about tech-company perks—but LinkedIn just took things to the next level.
For example, the company paid Joe Roualdes, a senior corporate-communications manager, $3,000 to teach scuba-diving in Indonesia.

Roualdes' grant was just one of 12 the company made. Other projects include raising funds for charities, building a chicken coop for an African orphanage, and drilling a well in a Central American village.
Here's a SlideShare presentation of the winners:
