Did your nonprofit produce a video in 2009? The DoGooder Nonprofit Video Awards is looking for the best nonprofit videos of the year, with a chance for great public exposure, $2500 for your organization, and other great prizes. Submissions are open until March 19, 2010 — there's no fee to enter — so get in on this contest if you can!
The contest will award a total of $10,000 in grants — $2500 in each
