HOORAY!!!

 

Congratulations, Kelly!

 

Your idea "Help Kids in Crisis! Refresh the Research! Vote Project P.A.N.D.A.S." has been voted by the public to receive a Pepsi Refresh Grant of $50,000! Pursuant to the Official Application Guidelines for the program, you will receive the grant upon completion and verification of the information contained in the Grant Agreement.

 

Our partners at GlobalGiving will send the Grant Agreement and other required forms to you at the email address you provided at registration (this email address), so be on the lookout for an email.

 

 

Pepsi has selected several partners to help implement the Pepsi Refresh Project. We are all dedicated to your success and the impact of the Project. In this email, we want to introduce you to these partners, their roles, and when you might expect to be contacted by them. You'll also receive a Pepsi Refresh Project Winner's Toolkit with fun tools and resources, including a Guidebook with loads of information.

 

You will definitely hear from:

 

Global Giving - to lead you through the due diligence process during the next two weeks and alert you to mid-point and final reporting obligations.

Pepsi Refresh Project Grants Managers - to help you ensure the success of your project by coordinating requests from other partners, providing direct support to you, and connecting you with useful resources.

 

You may also hear from:

 

Pepsi Refresh Project Category Ambassadors - to communicate your story on RefreshEverything.com and other media outlets.

Public Relations (Weber-Shandwick and/or Edelman) - to attract attention from local, regional, or national media outlets.

Advertising (TBWA/Chiat/Day) - to raise awareness about your efforts and the Pepsi Refresh Project.

Other Media (MTV and/or others) - to reach additional audiences with your inspiring work.

 

A member of the Pepsi Refresh Project team will be in contact with you shortly to discuss next steps. And lastly, until we have completed our verification process, please refrain from contacting any media outlets regarding your potential Grant.

 

We look forward to working with you and seeing your idea come to life.
