Hi all,
Has anyone heard of this Chase Community Giving program initiative? Instead of grant proposals, they're distributing funds based on Facebook votes. Each facebook user gets 20 votes to distribute among the 501(c)(3)s of their choice. We've just sent an email to members, I put it on SMLI's fan page, and I'm putting something on www.smli.org today, but does anyone have any other ideas for how to garner support for something like this?
Here's a link to the program and our page to see what it's like:
