Hey all,

We have been in the running for a $50k grant through the Pepsi Refresh Everything competition since 02/01/10, and have until 02/28/10 to be chosen to receive one. The way it works is sort of like a popularity contest…we have to get tons of votes from the general public. We have been doing everything we can to spread the word about us and what the money would allow us to do. When the competition began we were at 202nd place, and in one week have made it down to 37th place…so voting really does work!

Can you help us get into the Top 10? Here’s how to do it:

- Go to: http://www.refresheverything.com/SolarIvy
- Sign-up to vote (you will have to enter your name, valid email address and birthdate) – must be 13+ years old.
-Go back to the Solar Ivy page and click on ‘vote for this idea’.
- Vote daily until 02/28/10!

Please tell all your friends! We need all the votes we can get to push us into the Top 10. (Only the Top 10 ideas receive grants!)

If you are on Facebook or Twitter, look for us and repost/retweet our postings!

Thanks and don’t forget to Vote for Solar Ivy everyday until 02/28/10!
-Sita.
