Razoo's 'Change Your World' Contest

Razoo is an innovative new web platform that is actively engaging individuals and organizations to mobilize a new generation for social change. At Razoo, we are putting all our resources behind our mission of empowering and inspiring individuals for positive social change - and to celebrate our initial Launch, we are hosting a $10,000 contest for organizations to help us build a global community for social change!

Contest Details

Who: Non-profits and other social cause groups
What: $10,000 first-place, $2,500 second-place and $1,000 third-place prizes
Why: To create awareness, community, and action around important social issues
When: Vote by 11:59 pm on October 15, 2007
How: All groups on Razoo that recruit at least 100 members by 11:59pm on October 1, 2007 are entered into the Contest. Then the Razoo community will vote for their favorite organization to win!

Voting details: Voting will start at 12:00 pm noon on October 2, 2007 and end at 11:59 pm on October 15, 2007. We will count the number of Razoo members that vote for each organization, not the number of votes. Razoo members only have one valid vote for each qualifying organization, but can vote for as many organizations as they like. Any person that joins the Razoo online community may vote. Votes are aggregated on the Contest landing page here: Change Your World Contest.

Prize details

The group that receives the most member votes by the Contest end (October 15, 2007 at 11:59pm) will receive the first prize of a $10,000 donation to their designated 501(c)3 organization. The group that receives the second most member votes by the Contest end will receive a $2,500 donation to their designated 501(c)3 organization. The third place $1,000 donation prize will be awarded to a randomly selected winner among the remaining qualifying organizations on October 16, 2007.

Eligibility

Any social change group or organization is eligible to enter the Change Your World Contest (this includes non-profits, student groups, volunteer networks, fundraising groups, or other networks organized around social issues). The prizes, however, must each be given to a 501(c)3 organization. If the Razoo Group is not a 501(c)3, the group creator must designate a 501(c)3 which would receive the prize, which must be clearly stated in the 'Description' section of the Group page, before 11:59 pm on October 1, 2007. Non-profits that are awaiting 503(c)3 status from the IRS are eligible for the contest, but cannot receive the prize until they have been granted 501(c)3 status. Groups must have recruited 100 members by 11:59 pm on Monday October 1, 2007 to be eligible to win. Razoo reserves the right to remove any entries and expel members from the contest who are do not follow Razoo’s Terms of Service or User Guidelines.
