March 2022 winner Corolla Wild Horse Fund

Charitocracy OBX's 18th check to March winner Corolla Wild Horse Fund for $501

We have good news about March winner Corolla Wild Horse Fund, right after this quick update...

Our first public event ever!

League of Women Voters of Dare County invited me and Jessica to speak at their monthly luncheon last month at 3 Tequilas in Kill Devil Hills on St. Patrick's Day. What a total blast! We had a lot of laughs telling them how Charitocracy works and about the origins of Charitocracy OBX. Donor (and prolific OBX nominator) John Towler wrote about it for their monthly newsletter. Thanks for the opportunity!

March 2022 winner Corolla Wild Horse Fund

Last night we named Charitocracy OBX's 18th monthly winner! Congratulations to Corolla Wild Horse Fund, nominated by donor sherylwthorp. They protect the herd of wild Mustangs in northernmost Currituck, and help preserve this land as their permanent sanctuary. You can find their website here.

Now you have a week to sweeten the pot with a special one-time donation of any amount, which we'll add straight to the check we write to CWHF next week.

So finally, check out this 2 minute trailer for The Secret of Corolla, a film that Corolla Wild Horse Fund sells as a fundraiser. Then take a moment to feel good about your part in our collective $501+ grant to help with their ongoing work!

Have a great April and be sure to log into Charitocracy OBX to update your votes or nominate a new cause!
