Hey guys. I hate to ask for assistance, but it seems this is as good of a time as ever to request it. First, a little backstory.

I'm a high school student, and my high school is trying to host an international leadership summit for high school students. Granted, I'm pretty sure international doesn't mean "Every single continent possible!" as much as I would like it to.

Anyways, we entered our petition for 10,000 dollars on the Pepsi Refresh projects. We're one place away from winning (Top 15), and we're close. So please, help a Bay12er out. Again, it's just a plea for assistance. I'm sure some of you will hate me for asking, but it's something that would be great for our school.

You have to either

Please vote here.
Thanks for the thought.

Perhaps you should say a little more about what exactly it is you want?  You want... electronic signatures I assume, to get your high school to host a "international leadership conference" sponsored by Pepsi?  Surely you're not asking for money, right?

[inteuniso]

Right, I'm sorry, I thought I explained it enough in the post.

Basically, Pepsi runs a monthly contest where they'll give 15 projects or ideas 10,000 dollars (there's other categories for different amounts of money)people choose the top 15 ideas by voting for them. I'm asking you to simply put a vote up for my school's project. There is no requirement or option for money; it's just you clicking a button putting a vote towards the idea.

Why is every comment on your thing people asking for votes for their own thing?

Because drink more pepsi.

[Criptfeind]

I am unsure how that answe Oh look some pepsi!

PEPSI MAKES YOU HAPPY, PEPSI IS GOOD.

ALL HUMANS SHOULD DRINK PEPSI.

But sure, anything to help out a fellow Bay12'er.

Thanks for the votes! My school's up to 13th place, and with only today and tomorrow to vote, it's a sure shot to victory!

Voted up. Good luck! Try and edit the OP a wee bit. Maybe some nice larger font saying "Click here, sign in with facebook, vote."

Funny story, my high school actually won one of these Pepsi grants earlier this year.

Oh, our band does this. I'll probably ask for that later, as well.

Because Pepsi decided to make charitable giving into the online equivalent of The Running Man. I did this when a friend's child died from a genetic disorder and the research foundation was in the running for the top prize. Once I saw that they had turned it into a situation where you literally had people saying things like "C'mon, refurbishing a playground for inner school children is way more worthy than setting up fresh water for villages in Africa", I just couldn't participate anymore.

I'm pretty sure if he started selling cocaine he could probably raise more money then some pepsi bull.

Gratuitous use of exclamation marks? Downvote. Oh wait, I'm not on reddit. Sure I guess I'll vote.
