Project C 2012 is around the corner

Hey friends!

I just wanted to let you know that we are going to be highlighting four new organizations in the Athens area this year. We have put up a nomination page at http://www.clickingcreateschange.com/ so that you, the community, can suggest the organizations we look at.

The voting for this year will continue until all four organizations are picked and contacted by the production teams.

We are also looking for any interested students to join our team this year and volunteer! I can promise you it will be the most rewarding moments of your college career.

Thank you for your time and we will keep you up-to-date,

Tony Guglielmi
Co-Founder of Project C

Hey guys! I just wanted to share with everyone some awesome updates.


Annette Drapac and I (Tony) are now published writers (haha). Well, actually PhotoPhilanthropy has featured us on their blog! It is really awesome to have such great support behind us. If you have time take a look and read: http://photophilanthropy.org/2011/07/27/project-c-clicking-creates-change/


Also, we received word today that our site has been selected as a semi-finalist in the Adobe Design Achievement Awards! We will be sure to keep you updated on everything that is going on.

Quick update on stats and voting

I just wanted to give a quick update on the Google Analytics for the voting time period.


Not to bad at all for our first series as a project. We will be making changes to the site and process of the project so that we can improve accessibility next year for voting. Please, feel free to give us any feedback via comments, our contact form on the site or anything. We want to know how we can make this site work better for the community.

Project C raised $1,075 in donations for these 4 non-profits and 2556 votes decided how these funds would be divided among them. It was an amazing experience and we want to thank all of the organizations for their help and continued efforts. You can see how much was donated to each organization on each individual project page on www.clickingcreateschange.com .

Greetings!

Yesterday, Project C was featured on the Do Something website as the 'Project of the Day'.



We're happy to see our audience growing with the help of Do Something, a nonprofit organization based in New York City that acts as a hub for volunteer projects across the country. They also provide a number of grants and scholarships.

Be sure to check out Project C on Do Something.

Two days down!

We wanted to share an overview of the analytics to the site for the first two days! We are excited to see the amount of participation we are seeing.



The votes just keep coming in and we see the passion of this community coming to the surface. We appreciate the kind words we have been receiving on the project. Only 5 days left!


Some notes:

  • We are still taking in donations until the end of this week and we have all the information you need in the donate tab of this blog.

Having Voting Problems?

We couldn't be more proud of the project's reception on its first day of launch! If you haven't seen the stories please visit www.clickingcreateschange.com !

It has come to our attention that for some reason or another the voting system might not be working with older computers or browsers. With this in mind, the team wants to invite anyone having these issues to please send their two votes via email to donate@clickingcreateschange.com.

We have decided on this course of action in order to uphold the integrity of what the end purpose of this project is. The end purpose of Project C is to give the community a voice, not to limit its voice because of technology gaps or other uncontrollable variables.

We care that you want your voice heard and that you want to become more active in your community.

Enjoy the content, and we will keep everyone updated on what's happening on our end.

4 Causes, 7 Days, your Vote

I'm excited to announce that after nearly twelve weeks of production, Project C has launched! clickingcreateschange.com went live late last night to kick off the week-long voting period.


Please visit the site, learn about four nonprofits in Athens, Ohio, and vote for the one you'd like to support. Each computer gets 2 votes a day. And don't forget to spread the word to those around you!

Thank you to our supporters, donors, dedicated team of OU students & grads, and the exceptional organizations that we have worked with. It has really been an incredible experience - and I am excited that this is just the beginning!
