2. Daily Ramadan Leaderboard Description and Eligibility.

   To participate in the Contest, you must be a registered Campaign Organizer on the Platform and have an active campaign. The Contest has two categories of ranking: (i) most online donations per day and (ii) most online unique donors per day. Participants are divided by geographic region, based on whether their organization is registered in the Global category (other than APAC) or registered in APAC. By participating in the Contest, participants will be eligible to win a daily prize throughout Ramadan.

   1. Participant Eligibility: The Contest is open to all active campaigns on the Platform. Participants representing their organization must be authorized representatives with the legal capacity to bind the organization. By participating, the participant represents and warrants that they have read, and hereby agrees to be bound by, these Official Rules on behalf of their organization. All entries made in connection with the Contest are governed by these Official Rules and are subject to verification of eligibility before a prize is delivered. Employees, independent contractors, officers, and directors of Sponsor as well as the immediate family members (spouse, parents, siblings, and children and their respective spouses, regardless of where they live) and household members of each such person, whether or not related, are not eligible to participate if the campaign has previously received a boost from the Platform. Entries that are submitted in connection with the Contest will only be eligible if (A) the organization’s Campaign, and related content posted by the organization, does not contain content that is unlawful, hateful or obscene, and does not violate the Terms of Use in any other way, in the Sponsor’s sole and absolute discretion, and (B) the funds from the Campaign are being used, and will continue to be used, solely for the intended purpose for which the funds are being raised, as stated in the Campaign. By participating in the Contest, the organization’s representative represents and warrants that the organization is eligible to participate in accordance with these Official Rules.

   2. Donation Eligibility: Donations must be processed through the Platform at https://www.launchgood.com/ (the “Website”) using a credit card during the Contest Period (defined below). Additionally, donations must be made through the Platform and its third-party payment processor during the Contest Period and successfully processed to completion through the Platform and its third-party payment processor(s) before the end of the Contest Period in order to count toward the Contest. Donations can take time to process. Donations made outside the Contest Period and/or offline, even if recorded on the Website, including, but not limited to, donations by cash, credit card, money order, or any other donations not successfully processed online via credit card (“Offline Donations”), or donations that are refunded, returned or disputed, or that are otherwise not in compliance with these Official Rules are not eligible and will not be counted toward the Contest. The Sponsor has the right to verify any donation, and any donation that is subject to chargeback or dispute may not count toward the total amount raised. Neither Sponsor nor the Platform is responsible for any delays in processing any donations. The list of donations on any particular Campaign page, if any, or any similar tally of donation(s), are unofficial tallies of the amounts of donations in a Campaign and may not accurately reflect the donations made based on a variety of factors. Results of the Contest are not official until the Sponsor has verified the winner(s).

3. INELIGIBLE DONATIONS.

   Donation receipts and confirmation emails do not confirm donation eligibility. Ineligible donations, including Offline Donations, will not contribute to the Campaign total. organizations and proxies are prohibited from contributing money to their Campaigns, whether directly or indirectly. Neither organization nor a proxy may donate any money to an organization’s Campaign, whether by taking money from its account(s) to donate to its Campaign or otherwise, no matter the intent. Such contributions are considered ineligible donations and will not be counted toward the organization's Campaign. This includes but is not limited to, receiving cash or check donations or having an employee, Board Member, or other individual act as the organization's proxy. Such contributions are considered ineligible. Such donations will not be counted. Donations made via LaunchGood features, including Ads, will be excluded from the Daily Leaderboards. Collectively, each of the donations specified in this paragraph as ineligible shall be referred to as “Ineligible Donations.” Our team reserves the right to conduct manual reviews using our internal data system to ensure compliance with this rule.

5. Daily Ramadan Leaderboard Prizes. 

   Participants are divided by geographic region, based on whether their organization is registered in the Global category (other than APAC) or registered in APAC. 

   1. Global Leaderboards.

      1. Prizes will be awarded daily to the top 10 campaigns in 2 categories (20 total):

         1. Most online donations per day (total raised online).

         2. Most online unique donors per day.

Campaigns prize cap: $30,000 USD total during the 30 days of the Ramadan Contest Period (excluding April 8th, 2024 ET/ Ramadan 27).

2. APAC Leaderboards.

   1. Prizes will be awarded daily to the top 3 campaigns in 2 categories (6 total):

      1. Most online donations per day (total raised online).

      2. Most online unique donors per day.

3. Prize Cap

   1. To maintain fairness and promote diversity on the leaderboard, Campaign Organizers are prohibited from creating multiple campaigns with the same influencer or individuals to circumvent the daily leaderboard cap. For example, an existing campaign associated with an influencer or individual reaches its daily leaderboard cap. In that case, Campaign Organizers cannot start a new campaign to gain additional boosts from the leaderboard. This policy aims to prevent a single entity from monopolizing visibility, which could compromise the donor experience. While LaunchGood will not intervene if an individual independently starts a new campaign, adhering to these regulations is crucial to upholding the challenge's integrity.

Campaigns prize cap: $10,000 USD total during the 30 days of the Ramadan Contest Period (excluding April 8th, 2024 ET/ Ramadan 27).
