Voting ends July 28 • 6pm ET 〰️
100% of donations go directly to the venture who collects the most votes!
Here’s how it works:
1. RSVP to get one free vote!
Each event RSVP gets one free vote at ticket checkout. You’ll get an extra free vote when you show up in-person at the event!
2. Donate additional votes!
Votes are “purchased” in the form of donations. Additional vote purchases directly increase the Crowd Favorite Award prize pot (and your favorite participant’s chances of winning it!)
3. Voting ends at 6pm on event day!
The winner will be decided live on Tuesday, July 28, 2026. You can cast your votes anytime from now until 6:00pm ET that day.
All donations are tax-deductible!
SEA Change is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization and contributions are tax-deductible for income, gift, and estate taxes. You will be sent a donation receipt within two weeks of the Showcase Event.
