The Genocide Intervention Network, a N2Y2 Featured Project, is one of 12 nonprofit nominees in the Peace Primary produced by the Ploughshares Fund.
It's quite a clever contest. September 1-October 31, 2007 you can vote for the organization, or organizations, you care about the most with your dollars. Each dollar you donate through the Peace Primary site counts as a vote for that organization. They get to keep 100% of the donation and you get to write it off on your taxes. Whichever organization gets the most votes wins $100,000 from the Ploughshares Fund to put towards amplifying their message during the 2008 election.
The other nominees are American Friends Service Committee, The Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, Citizens for Global Solutions, Faithful Security, Global Green USA, National Religious Campaign Against Torture, Peace Demands Action
Refugees International, True Majority, Union of Concerned Scientists and Women's Action for New Directions
