Teachers and parents give students the building blocks they need to learn and grow, but sometimes they can use a little outside help. As education budgets continue to shrink nationwide, The Clorox Company’s Power A Bright Future grant program was created to help schools fund new or ongoing programs that allow children to play, create and explore. I’m hoping you can tell your readers how they can easily help Tibbals win up to $50,000 in the Power A Bright Future grant program for technology to help engage our scholars in their learning.
After a competitive national nomination period, now it is time for our community to show its support. Help local Tibbals win up to $50,000 by casting votes starting Oct. 24, 2011.
From Oct.24, 2011 through Dec. 9, 2011, adults and children 13 and older can visit www.PowerABrightFuture.com to vote once a day for the program they believe is most deserving of a grant. New this year to the Power A Bright Future program, neighbors, friends and family can now vote for their favorite school right from their phones via text message
The program that receives the highest number of votes will be awarded the $50,000 grand-prize grant, and the next top vote-getters in the Play, Create and Explore categories respectively will each be awarded a $25,000 grant. Also new this year, Clorox’s judge panel will select one additional lucky school to win a $25,000 judge’s choice grant. Visit www.PowerABrightFuture.com for official rules.
Here are four easy steps you and your readers can take to help give our kids by providing technology to help engage them in their learning.
