You're In Business

MASP (Mallee Accommodation and Support Program) is a legitimate Australian non-profit with verified annual revenue of ~$16M AUD and ~140 staff. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing demonstrably false traction claims ('most people have used my product') and generic spam text found in other low-effort entries. While the organization has high real-world utility, this submission lacks technical innovation (standard NGO services) and provides unreliable data. The score reflects the organization's intrinsic value severely penalized by the lack of technical relevance and the poor quality of the submission.
