Cleveland needs your help! The Broadway Slavic Village neighborhood has applied for a $250,000 Pepsi Refresh grant. That money would go towards constructing a park and playground on two vacant lots in a pretty rough area of the neighborhood.
Those two lots are overgrown and dangerous; a row of ugly bushes divides the parcels and creates hiding places for shady activity, which rightly worries people living next to the site.
This is where you come in. We already have plans drawn up for this park – we just need the money! Pepsi’s grant dollars are administered in a unique way: by virtue of the public’s vote. A bunch of grant proposals are published on their website, and whichever grant gets the most votes, gets the money. Voting for our project goes live next month!
It’s simple. All we need is your vote throughout the month of June.
I attached a press release that offers more background on the grant as well as the Pepsi Refresh Project. Go to www.SlavicVillage.org/pepsi for more information, and a direct link to vote! You can vote daily, and we’ll need it. This is a really wonderful project, but without your help, it won’t happen.
Thanks in advance for helping us make this a reality. Please forward this email around to friends, family, coworkers, pets, enemies, random people, anyone!
The Indians are in last place; the Browns are still rebuilding; the Cavs just blew it… but your votes will help to finally Bring Home a Win for Cleveland!
Make it happen!
Thanks,
Jonathan
