Scouts Canada and Canadian Youth need YOUR help!

Scouts Canada is competing for a $100,000 grant in the Pepsi “Refresh Everything” campaign. They are looking for organizations with ideas that will have a positive impact on communities. Scouts Canada’s submission is to send more children and youth across Canada to Scout Summer Camps. The idea with the most registered votes by August 31st will win the $100,000 grant.

The idea just moved into the # 1 spot with only days left. This is a good cause that will help Canadian kids get outside and camping!  Please check it out and help make a difference.

It will only take a few minutes of your time to:
  1. Go here - http://www.refresheverything.ca/sendkidstoscoutcamp
  2. Register once
  3. Please vote everyday!
  4. Help get the word out via email,  twitter, facebook, or any other tools you have.
Copy the originator when you forward this to let them know you’ve made a difference!

More on the project.  Pepsi is giving away 10 grants ranging from $5,000 to $100,000.  You can vote once per day for each grant.  There are lots of good causes worth supporting.  Many benefit kids. Check out the leader board for more.
