Sharpsburg Bucks have been discontinued

and the App will be CLOSED as of April 1, 2025.  

 

Sharpsburg Bucks launched in 2023 as an experimental digital community currency pilot program in partnership with Carnegie Mellon University’s ZUZLab and Sharpsburg Neighborhood Organization (SNO), alongside our local launch partner Northwest Bank.  Thank you to everyone who took part in this experimental post-pandemic program!

​

With the end of this program, what does this mean to you if you have a balance remaining in the app?  

You have two options:

​

1. Do Nothing! 

Once the app/program closes, any bucks remaining in your digital wallet after April 6, 2025, will be transferred to SNO and treated as a tax-deductible donation to SNO to support our mission to facilitate civic initiatives and engage volunteers to plan and complete projects that further the sense of place, pride, and community in Sharpsburg. Thank you in advance for considering this option to support SNO!

​

2. Request redemption.

Alternately, you can send an email to SNO to request redemption at admin@sharpsburgneighborhood.org. Your email request must include your full name, the email address associated with your account, and the mailing address where a physical check can be sent via USPS. This option may take up to 30 business days after April 6, 2025.
