Student nonprofit wins $25,000
The student-run nonprofit Elmseed Enterprise Fund clinched $25,000 last week after contacting panlists and engaging students outside of dining halls in pursuit of votes in a contest conducted by banking firm JPMorgan Chase.
Elmseed, which is run by Yale students and provides microcredit and consulting services to low-income entrepreneurs in the New Haven community, attained 1,757 votes from Facebook users over eight days to attain 28th place in the fourth Chase Community Giving contest, which awarded a total of $3 million to 100 U.S. nonprofits.
