You Can Help send a Kid to Camp!
Once again, you can submit your Vote to help send kids to camp ...
The Pepsi "Refresh Everything" campaign is looking to give away $200,000 in grants to individuals, businesses, and non-profit organizations with ideas that will have a positive impact on communities. To choose the recipients of these grants, people create accounts and vote on the ideas they like; the idea that has the most votes is the recipient. Scouts Canada is in the running for the $100,000 dollar grant and (as of July 20, 2010) is in 3rd place!
Let's get this idea to #1 before voting closes on August 31st. You can vote for the idea once a day!
