Votes Needed for a Friend's Non-Profit

Hey guys, I hope some of you can help me out and support my friend. He started a non-profit organization in Minneapolis designed to help keep kids off the streets, and is a finalist for a national competition hosted by the White House supporting these types of efforts. If he finishes in the top 5 (of 15) of the voting, he will be invited to an event at the White House.

 

You can vote from this page: https://campuschallenge.uservoice.com/forums/148562-campus-champions-of-change-challenge/suggestions/2619298-the-a-list-matt-norris-university-of-minnesota

 

Here's the excerpt on what his organization does:

 

The A-list is a teen hangout based on a revolutionary new approach to youth engagement. Designed to be a one-stop shop for youth, it’s a place where teens can go to get a job, participate in educational afterschool programs, and enjoy fun evening events at night. What makes The A-list unique is that teens themselves actually produce 30% of the revenue to support the organization by selling snacks at our snack bar and making custom screen-printed t-shirts all while helping to keep teens safe. The A-list focuses on three key mission elements—entrepreneurship, education, and personal growth. And as a result of Norris’ efforts, hundreds of teens visit The A-list every week, getting off the street and into a safe and caring environment.

How often can we vote?

 

I believe just once, though note that it gives you three votes that you can split between organizations, or give all three to just one.

 

Thanks guys!

I've voted 9 times so far. :)

I didn't realize we could vote multiple times until seeing your post... so, 3 more from me :)

I used different e-mail addresses each time. There's some kind of cookie control over there that keeps you from voting again immediately, but it seems that the cookies expire pretty quickly.

That’s the only thing Chicago’s good for: to tell people where Wisconsin is.
