We review each project application to ensure that it meets the following criteria:

• Your project will help improve the social fabric, local economic vitality and/or environmental - integrity of your community.
• Your project will provide broad benefit to a range of community members (as opposed to a private campaign for a private cause).
• You have the resources, ability, and credibility to successfully complete or coordinate the completion of the project.
• The amount of funds you are raising will be enough to successfully implement it.
• If you are raising money on an debt or equity basis, the maximum you can raise is $250,000 and the maximum that each backer can contribute is $1500.

If the project does not meet all the above criteria, we will work with you to modify your application.
