Chase giveaway

[camel lips]

I was looking for CV, Alliance and Empire Statesmen to vote but could not find them. Then someone told me you had to have a 1 million dollar balance sheet to be eligible. With that said there are several corps that clearly do not have 1 million dollar sheets that are still in the voting. Whats up with that? Anyone know?

We were a recipient of $20,000 from Chase last year, which makes us ineligible this year.

And yes this year there are rules around operating expenses.

**Charities must be recognized as a 501©(3) public charity in the GuideStar database as of 12/31/10 and have annual operating expenses equal to or greater than $1,000,000 and equal to or less than $10,000,000, and must meet other eligibility requirements found in the full Official Rules.**

The next grant round will be for under 1M in operating expenses, so you'll have the chance to vote for other corps then. Right now, only a handful of corps are eligible and on the voting list. Charities are being taken off the list once they reach the top 100 and aren't in the eligibility limits... that's probably why corps are disappearing. No fault of their own, they just don't meet the requirements for THIS round

I just voted for the Boston Crusaders Senior Corps. They are on page 2 and currently in 36th place.

thanks for the info. Do you know when there will be a round for under a million and where I can go to check for it regularly? :)
