in catalysing social good”.

Jean Case, CEO of the Case Foundation, one of the sponsors, said: “Through the DoGooder
Nonprofit Video awards, we have seen firsthand how compelling images and dynamic
stories amplified by the social web can inspire and activate the masses.”

Holly Ross of NTEN added: “As nonprofits, we want to do more than simply tell people
what we do, we want to show the impact it makes on our communities. Nothing lets
us do that like video.”

## Prizes

Technology provider Cisco will provide $14,000 in cash prizes and up to $6,000 in
products to be divided amongst the winning organisations. The four contest winners
will be **featured on the YouTube homepage** and receive free registrations to the

## Eligibility
