We need to add some error handling to prevent this from happening in the future, but the reason that this happened is that the amount needs to be only numerical (no dollar sign or commas) and the minimum number of awards also can only be numeric (they had “1 winner for each American Legion post”) but it needed to be stored as “1”.
