Money is a big part of fulfilling big ideas but nowadays it’s even harder than ever to come by. Luckily, Pepsi can help! While choosing to skip the $3 million Super Bowl ad for the first time in 23 years, they have set aside many more millions for the Pepsi Refresh Project. Every month, Pepsi is accepting 1,000 ideas in areas of Health, Arts & Culture, Food & Shelter, The Planet, Neighborhoods and Education. Regular folks like you and me, businesses of all sizes and non-profits are all welcome to submit. With grants from $5,000-$250,000 are awarded to up to 32 ideas, what’s there to lose?
Good on Pepsi for embracing digital, not to mention giving people a chance to make positive changes in their communities. Most of the Super Bowl ads this year lacked the pizzazz of years past anyhow. BTW, who still watches commercials? Even my mom skips them and she doesn’t even know what a DVR is. But I digress.
Have a light bulb moment today? You should head over to RefreshEverything.com to submit your idea or check out the leaders in each category and vote for your favorites. If you want to see how some of the past winners are doing, head over to the blog and read some of the grantee stories. There’s a really great one about a Twitter based app that allows young volunteers to measure and share their impact based on geo location.
