The Backstory
Chase Bank and Facebook have teamed up to raise & donate $5,000,000 to several non-profit organizations. Close to my heart are the participating Drum Corps International competing corps. These groups deserve all the support in the world.
You Get 5 Votes
From the rule page: “Voting begins January 15 through January 22. You will have 5 votes, but only 1 per charity! … Five charities will get $100,000 each, and one charity will receive $1MM! Also, the Chase Community Giving Advisory Board will select additional nominated charities from either round to share another $1 million.”
Groups in the Running
- Carolina Crown
- The Cavaliers
- The Colts
- Phantom Regiment
- Push America (not drum corps-related, but a great cause!)
Conclusion
I think I found all the drum corps. Please let me know if I forgot any. For more on the program, check out Chase Community Giving’s official rules.
