Event Details

 

March Madness is here! We all fill out a bracket, but why not do some GOOD while having some fun?

Join Citizen Effect and CrowdFlower as they tip off the 2nd Annual Brackets with Benefits, sponsored by Edelman. We will be watching the CBS Selection Show from 5-6PM and filling out the bracket. And the we will be joined by CrowdFlower from 6-7PM chat about the power of crowdsourcing philanthropy.

Can't make it but still want to get in the game? Brackets with Benefits works just like other pools — donate $10, fill out a bracket, and win prizes and bragging rights. But most importantly, the Brackets with Benefits champion will choose which Citizen Effect project to fund with all the donations. Oh yeah, and you can also win an iPad, FlipVideo Camera and TOMS Shoes.

Tournament registration is now open at http://citizeneffect.org/tourney.

Brackets go live on Sunday, March 13 at 7PM EST.

Brackets close on March 17th at 12:30PM EST.
