[Nfbnet-members-list] Last Full Week Ahead for the 2011 NFB Youth Slam and the Pepsi Refresh Project

[Lamkin, Seth]

Last Full Week Ahead for the 2011 NFB Youth Slam and the Pepsi Refresh Project

Next week will be the last full week of August that the NFB Youth 
Slam will be eligible to receive votes towards a grant of $250,000 
from Pepsi. We have made good progress, but we need to pick up the 
pace in the next week and a half if we are to be one of the top two 
projects at the end of the month. Thank you all for voting, and 
remember to vote on the weekends as well! Tell your friends and 
family to do the same, and let the world know that you support the 
Youth Slam by sending out notices to vote on Facebook, Twitter, and 
to all of your contacts on your phone. Remember, there are three ways to vote:

    * Text Message: Simply put the number 101913 into the body of a 
text, and send that text to 73774. That's all you have to do each day 
to vote via text. *Standard text-messaging rates apply
    * Go to 
<http://www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam>www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam, 
click the link to vote, and then choose the log in using Facebook 
option. Once you're successfully logged in, click the vote button on 
our page again and the vote link will disappear and you'll have 
logged your vote!
    * Go to 
<http://www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam>www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam, 
click the link to vote, and then choose the sign in directly with 
Pepsi option. This option is the least desirable option, but with 
practice still can be done in less than a minute each day. An audio 
CAPTCHA is necessary for completing this option, but only this option 
requires the CAPTCHA. If you do not wish to solve a CAPTCHA each time 
to vote (and do not have the ability to text), please use the 
Facebook option, even if you simply create a Facebook account to vote 
for this month and deactivate it once we have won.

Thank you all for your help over the last three weeks. If you haven't 
voted yet, now is when we need you to take a few moments each day to 
show your support for equality, access, and opportunity for the 
blind. We need to keep up the momentum and secure these funds for 
blind students!
