Project for Awesome (P4A) is a charity video contest running from February 11th to February 19th, 2025. The public can vote on videos supporting various charities, and the ones with the most votes receive donations. Thanks to the support of the EA community, three EA charities received $37,000 each last year.
Please help generate additional donations for EA charities again this year with just a few clicks! Voting is open until Wednesday, February 19th at 11:59 AM EST. You can find more information about P4A in this EA Forum post.
On the P4A website, there are numerous videos showcasing different charities, including several EA charities. Feel free to watch the videos and cast your votes.
Here’s how it works: „Anyone can go to the homepage of projectforawesome.com to see all videos. You can sort by charity category, pick from a dropdown of organization names, or search for a specific video. After you click on a video, look for a big red “VOTE” button either next to or below the video. You’ll have to check an “I’m not a robot” box, too.“
This year, there’s a new rule: „Our voting rule for Project for Awesome 2025 is one vote per charitable organization per device.“ So, you can vote for all the charities you want.

Every vote is incredibly valuable! In 2024, a total of 72,702 votes were counted, meaning each vote was worth approximately $15 on average. With the extended voting period this year (a full week instead of just a weekend), it’s likely that the total number of votes will increase.
Feel free to share this awesome opportunity with your friends! 🎉
Successfully voted for all videos linked above! And a big thanks to you Felix for coordinating our collective efforts to get EA charities votes for another year running!
Hi! Thanks for sharing our video and collating the list. I wasn't aware that there is another EA organization in Colombia (you list Children Change Colombia). I explored their website but couldn't find any mentions of ties to EA. Do you have more info on why they are included here? Would love to connect with them :)
The video was made by EA Barcelona. Perhaps @Melanie Brennan can say more about that?
Thanks for your comment, Laura! Children Change Colombia doesn't have a connection with EA as far as I know. However, one of our members felt an affinity for the charity and wanted to support them with her video. But in order to avoid further confusion, I've asked the author of this post to remove it from the list of EA-aligned charities. Thanks!
Voted! I also donated to get the digital download bundle—because, secretly, I’m still a Nerdfighter!

Voted! Felix, thanks so much for putting it together!
