September 2021 winner OBX Room in the Inn

Charitocracy OBX's 12th check to September winner OBX Room in the Inn for $500

We have good news about September winner OBX Room in the Inn, right after this quick update...

Happy birthday, Charitocracy OBX!

We've had a successful first year, supporting 12 wonderful causes, and now have plenty of nominees to choose from each month. (The more the merrier, of course, so feel free to nominate your favorite local nonprofit!)

Want to celebrate by pushing the monthly pot past $500? Consider inviting some new donors, and/or bumping up your own donation!

Also, if you know of any individual or business that would like to help boost our impact, by all means let's get those monthly grants up to $1000 and beyond! Every $1200 per year we receive means another $100 bump in our outgoing grant checks. And I'd be happy to maintain a prominent list of big ticket donors helping make that happen! As a business seeking opportunities to spread good will, why pick just one organization to support when you could let us pick twelve for you and really spread your good will around?! One stop shopping here at Charitocracy, so if you know anyone, do get in touch...

September 2021 winner OBX Room in the Inn

Yesterday we named Charitocracy OBX's 12th monthly winner! Congratulations to OBX Room in the Inn, nominated by donor Ltwood@yahoo.com. They organize shelter for the homeless in the Outer Banks, also providing hospitality, food, and support services. You can find their website here. You may recall they also won Charitocracy USA in summer 2020...

Now you have a week to sweeten the pot with a special one-time donation of any amount, which we'll add straight to the check we write to OBX Room in the Inn.

So finally take a moment to watch this 1-minute highlights reel of our grant check presentation to OBX RITI. Then feel good about your part in our collective $500+ grant to help with their ongoing work!
