<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The
first week of voting for the 2011 NFB Youth Slam in the Pepsi Refresh project
is coming to a close and our project has been hovering around the mid 40s since
Pepsi corrected their ranking system earlier this week. Remember everyone, only
the top 2 projects in our category actually receive the money. We desperately
need every chapter president to push this important opportunity in their chapter
whether through e-mail, Facebook, Twitter, texting, or at chapter meetings. In
fact, chapter meetings would be a perfect opportunity for everyone to take the
time to vote. Remember, you can vote via text message (the easiest method) by
putting the number 101913 in the body of a text and sending that text to 73774.
For those without text messaging, go to <a href="http://www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam"><a href="http://www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam">www.refresheverything.com/nfbyouthslam</a></a>,
click the vote button to sign in, then click the vote button once more to log
your vote. Detailed instructions are available at <a href="http://www.nfb.org/"><a href="http://www.nfb.org">www.nfb.org</a></a>.
You can also sign up for daily e-mail reminders using the link on <a href="http://www.nfb.org/"><a href="http://www.nfb.org">www.nfb.org</a></a>. The NFB Youth Slam is a vital
program that shows how blind students can participate and excel in science
subjects, if only given the opportunity and encouragement. As with all of our
programs, it is an important step towards the complete integration and
acceptance of the blind into every part of society on a basis of equality. With
your help we can make it a reality and pull in this grant from Pepsi!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
