HOW DO I RAISE MONEY?:
ONLINE DONATIONS:
Share the QR CODE (see below) with your supporters. It will lead them to a special SNOWBOUND donation page created by the ASGCC to ensure that all SNOWBOUND donations are correctly designated to each contestant. Your supporters will simply use a DROP-DOWN menu and click on your name and number to cast their vote.
Deadline for online donations (received and verified by ASGCC) is Sunday, February 23 at 9:00 am. Donations receive after that time are appreciated but will not count towards your final contest total.
CASH DONATIONS:
Your photo submission will be displayed at some events throughout the weekend with a donation box for those who prefer to donate in person.
You will be provided with your own Contestant Wallet for accepting cash donations throughout the weekend. The wallet will help to keep these funds separate from your own. Gather these funds throughout the weekend and deliver them by the deadline noted below.
