The time for the next BIG Idea has come!

You might have heard the buzz by now - Asha for Education is gearing up for a shot at $500,000 grant as part of Round 2 of the Chase Community Giving program!

Every year Chase donates 5 million USD to various charities and you can help make Asha one of the top recipients ((in round 1 we came in at rank 33 and won $25K given to the top 100).

Chase relies on Facebook users to vote for their favorite charities and the non profit with the highest votes is selected for the donation. Voting has already started and will end on May 25. We are targeting getting upwards of 150,000 votes which is a tall order. Your vote and every vote you can help Asha get from your friends and contacts will allow 3000 underprivileged youth in urban India to find skilled jobs and 750 people in rural India start and nurture small businesses as part of our BIG IDEA submission (http://www.ashanet.org/bigIdea/)
