A note from the grant writer:
THE MARIA KAUPAS CENTER WHICH OFFERS AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMMING TO CATALYST-MARIA HIGH SCHOOL TEENS, NEEDS YOUR HELP.
WE SUBMITTED AN APPLICATION FOR FUNDING TO RUN A HEALTHY EATING CLASS AT THE CENTER, AND WE WERE SELECTED AS A FINALIST. THE CATCH IS WE NEED 500 VOTES IN ORDER TO WIN THE $500.
SO FAR WE HAVE 280 VOTES, BUT TIME IS RUNNING OUT. THERE ARE ONLY 7 DAYS LEFT TO VOTE. EACH PERSON (WITH A FACEBOOK ACCOUNT) CAN VOTE 3 TIMES; SO IF WE COULD JUST GET 74 PEOPLE TO CAST THREE VOTES FOR EATING LIGHT/EATING RIGHT, THEN WE COULD BE FUNDED.
BELOW IS A STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION OF HOW YOU CAN VOTE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN LEARNING MORE ABOUT OUR PROGRAM, PLEASE CONTACT ME OR READ THE ATTACHED PRESS RELEASE THAT WAS SENT OUT TO ELICIT ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY SUPPORT.
