Why vote?

The voting process is simple, interactive and fun.  Plus, your voices together are better than ours alone and voting in the USAID Challenge Community Vote will help select the very best 15 projects to move on to the panel of judges.

Voting begins on Monday, December 8 and closes on Friday, December 12.  That’s just one week of voting, so we hope you’ll get the word out to friends and colleagues to help support the projects you care about. You don’t have to be part of a project team or even be a mobile tech expert to participate.
