Update on the Progressive Slate

January 31, 2011

By Adam Bink

I wrote this past weekend about free corporate money for causes like GLSEN and GLAD via the Pepsi Refresh Everything contest. As of then, we were in a strong position to win.

This just came in over e-mail:

Hi Adam,

We wanted to let you know that GLSEN, our 10th partner, just moved into the #2 spot to win $250,000 this month! That’s the largest grant in the contest and one we’ve never been able to win. If we can keep them there tonight and through tomorrow, it will mean a quarter of million dollars dedicated to helping protect LGBT youth from bullying and harassment.

If you haven’t voted today, cast your votes now! You can also send in a text message to vote for GLSEN. Simply text “105532″ to the number 73774.

This is it…the final 28 hours of the contest. Today and tomorrow are the last chances you have to vote!

Thanks for everything!
