A-SPAN is competing to win $50,000 in the Pepsi Refresh Everything Contest to keep the winter shelter open longer next  year. Our friends at Borromeo Housing & CrisisLink are also in the contest and we want you to vote them, too. The best part is - the top 10 ideas in each category will get funded so it doesn't matter if we come in 1st or 10th, we each can still get $50,000! Voting is free and easy!

Visit the Pepsi Refresh website http://www.refresheverything.com and create a log-in for yourself. All it takes is a valid email address and a password you make up for yourself (choose 'aspan1' as your password and that should be easy enough to remember!). Please send the email address you use to our Development Director (jsacharko@a-span.org) and he can send you a reminder email everyday with the link to vote so you remember to do it everyday and help us win!

The Pepsi Refresh Challenge is a contest where nonprofits can enter their idea to begin a new project or fund an important cause. Every month people can register for free, log-in, and vote for their favorite idea. It takes about 10 seconds and you vote everyday in April.
