Show of Hands

Save the date for the next Show of Hands! Community members are presented with four projects that would positively impact Wheeling. Then, attendees vote on their favorite. The winner will get at least $4,000 to complete the project.

Doors will open at 6 p.m. with presentations starting at 6:30 p.m.

Show of Hands is a community-supported crowd-funding event. Community members are presented with four projects that would positively impact Wheeling. Then, attendees vote on their favorite.

Applications are due by midnight March 10 at wheelingheritage.org/show-of-hands/

HOW SHOW OF HANDS WORKS:
– In-person attendees make a donation of at least $5 for a vote, or $10 to vote online.
– Four presenters share their proposals for projects that benefit the community.
– Attendees cast their vote for the project they want to help fund.
– The project with the most votes receives all of the money raised at the door + the prize from community partners.
– Winners come back to a future Show of Hands to tell the audience how their project went/is progressing, how they used the money, and the impact the project had on the community.
– Online voting will be available.

Your attendance at Show of Hands is greatly appreciated and will show individuals presenting projects that they have the support of a strong community.
