Washington County Community Foundation announced the results of its recent web-based “Clicks for Cash” contest for charities that registered to participate in WCCF Gives – its inaugural communitywide day of giving on Sept. 10.
Members of the community were encouraged to participate by visiting www.wccfgives.org and clicking on the charity profile pages of their favorite WCCF Gives participants. WCCF tracked the unique page views of each charity’s profile page from June 10 to 23 to determine a winner. Each unique page view was counted as a vote for that charity.
Receiving more than 400 votes during the contest period, Washington Symphony Orchestra secured the grand prize: a $1,000 unrestricted grant from the Acorn Fund. All other participating charities were entered into a computerized lottery for an opportunity to receive one of four $500 Acorn Fund grants.
The charities received one chance in the lottery for each vote they received in the contest. The Brownson House, Old Schoolhouse Players, Children’s School of Washington and the Literacy Council of Southwestern Pennsylvania were randomly selected as the lottery winners.
Qualified 501(c)(3) charities that have not yet registered for WCCF Gives are encouraged to submit an application as soon as possible. For complete criteria, please visit www.wccfgives.org.
