Berkley has selected its charity if it wins one of the prizes for the 2020 voter challenge, see https://natpernick.blogspot.com/2020/08/26-august-2020-2020-voter-challenge.html. Per Matthew Baumgarten, City Manager, "If we earn an award in this year's challenge, we would split that award between two non-profit groups in our community, The Friends of Berkley Parks & Recreation and the Friends of the Berkley Public Library."
