Starting Inauguration Day, The Huffington Post, The Skoll Foundation, and knowledge partner McKinsey & Company announce the JobRaising Challenge. It's a new kind of philanthropic narrative to help job-creating nonprofits raise money, raise awareness and help put Americans back to work through highly engaged, cost-efficient incentive fundraising.
The Skoll Foundation is donating $250,000 in prize money to the nonprofits that raise the most money on CrowdRise. The nonprofit that raises the most money will get $150k, the second will get $50k, and the third $30k.
The partners selected 74 finalists to compete in the JobRaising Challenge out of an outstanding pool of 217 nonprofits in 31 states and 110 cities. You can pledge your support now to the nonprofits whose missions resonate with you the most. Your voices and contributions will be essential in helping to solve the jobs crisis and will determine the recipients of the $250,000 in prizes.
Click the big DONATE button and give whatever you can. Every dollar counts.
Or go one step further and join one of our amazing charity teams and help 'em fundraise.
The organizations will blog throughout the competition on The Huffington Post and be featured promimently the site.
Together, we're acting on John Gardner's belief that "what we have before us are some breathtaking opportunities disguised as insoluble problems." So check it out, lend your support, and become someone's opportunity. And thank you for helping make JobRaising a success.
