Some of you may or may not know that my 12 year old son (Jordan) was recently diagnosed with liver disease – of which they know very little about in children.
Diet and exercise are two of the most important components to try to “stall” the increasing bad liver enzymes he has been experiencing. While I can control what he eats at home I am not so fortunate with what he eats at school (unless I pack a lunch but …)
Anyhow, I was recently made aware of this non-profit organization in Chicago who is on a mission to win $50K from Pepsi in order to bring healthy snacks to after school programs in the area.
While I don’t live in Chicago and this won’t directly impact me I feel compelled to help them since Chicago has such a vast number of children who live below poverty level. And we all know that buying healthy food is more expensive than the bad snacks.
What I’m asking of you is to please, please vote for them every day to win this $50K from Pepsi.
This link is Pepsi’s so you will either have to create an account or connect with Facebook. Once you connect with Facebook then you have to click on the “voting” link a 2nd time. The first time connects to FB and the 2nd one will actually register your vote. (you will see the #10 on the lower, left hand side of the screen” change to a 9 after successfully submitting your vote.
So here’s the link: http://www.refresheverything.com/XXICenturyKids1stFoundation
