You'll always find something to complain about. Its based on skin sales, the larger regions will undoubtedly donate much more than $10k.

You're correct - the actual charity pools are based on a proportional basis. We wanted to just make sure that all non-profits are getting a baseline of support

Why do I have the UK votes when im from germany? My client is english but still, shouldnt it be based on IP ?

Unfortunately, we had a lot of technical limitations with geo-targeting for the voting hub. The voting selections will come up as the native language. I'm sorry, it's not ideal

Would be nice to see how these specific ones got picked and the reasoning behind it.

Charity Navigator:

• Mental health America
• Eden Reforestation Projects
• Code.org

There's a couple of factors at play when we try and select nonprofits for these types of campaigns. We first try to use what players tell us is most meaningful and important to them based on their region through surveys and research - we want to make sure that we're picking issues that are important to you all, not just us.

Then there's a whole ton of fun regarding legal, financial, impact and governance evaluation to finalize the selections.

While we look at overhead ratios of nonprofits, we find it doesn't tell the whole story of where an org is, what they're doing, and the impact they're making. Our usual standard is to review 2 - 3 years of financial statements, as well as other factors to determine both the capacity and potential impact of a nonprofit.

We made a minimum "floor" of $40,000 for regions. Meaning, the most voted org, will get $20K and the other two will still get $10K each
