2016 Members’ Choice Prize Winner

The results are in and our members have spoken! We raised $1,853 from our Members and Partners for the 2016 Members’ Choice Prize. And the results are in.

Winner — GiveDirectly

Our February selection received 36 percent of the total vote. We’re excited to be sending them 50 percent of the 2016 Prize — $931. We can’t wait to see how they put our donations to use!

Runner Up — Project Healthy Children (PHC)

PHC was selected as our April nonprofit and they received 27 percent of our Members’ votes. We’ll be sending them 25 percent of the Prize — $468.

The rest of the Prize will be distributed evenly to our remaining 2016 organizations — which comes to $46 per nonprofit. It’s not a huge amount, but as we know, these effective organizations will be sure to put every dollar to use.

It was a big year for Altruist and we can’t wait to see what we can accomplish 2017! We more than doubled our 2015 donations for a total of $3,323, and as our donations continue to grow we are showing the true power of an inclusive community dedicated to making a positive impact on the world.
