National PTA need OUR help! VOTE TODAY!!

We Need Your Help!


PTA's Million Hours of Power Campaign Can Win $250,000 National PTA and our "Million Hours of Power" campaign have been selected for the Pepsi Refresh Project during the month of September. PTA has the opportunity to receive $250,000 for this campaign with the help of our leaders, friends, and local PTAs. Million Hours of Power is a campaign to inspire men throughout America to collectively dedicate at least one million hours of service to the health, education, and well-being of America's youth during a single school year. The benefits to children are tremendous when parents get involved.
It's easy to vote! Just go to www.refresheverything.com/millionhoursofpower and sign up using an e-mail address. View this instructional video for more information about voting.
How can PTA earn the $250,000 Grant? Simple…
  1. You need to vote every day.
  2. You need to encourage others to vote every day.
  3. You need to promote this opportunity. (Find out how on www.refresheverything.com/millionhoursofpower.)
Our partners for the campaign include the National Fatherhood Leaders Group and members of PTA MORE Men Organized to Raise Engagement) who are on a mission to get more men involved and produce more positive outcomes for children.
Winning the Pepsi Refresh project will allow us to organize town hall meetings, create tool kits for PTAs, launch media campaigns, and promote a male volunteer of the year award. These are just some of the ways the grant can provide PTA resources to educate men on how critical their involvement is to their children's development.
There are great tools on the Pepsi Refresh project website to spread the word using Facebook, Twitter, and more. Plus - since you can vote for as many as 10 different ideas every day - type "PTA" into the search bar at the upper right corner of the Pepsi Refresh Project homepage to vote for other local PTA projects.
Remember visit www.refresheverything.com/millionhoursofpower and vote every day in September. Check our ranking and help move us to #1.

We appreciate all your support.
