Bing “Our School Needs” Voting Phase

We all know of a school that is suffering financially.  You can make a difference for 4 schools.
 
The 15 finalists are chosen and the voting has begun on the Bing "Our School Needs" competition.

Bing "Our School Needs" Voting Phase Blog TourHere are the contest details:
  • Bing is awarding a quarter-million dollars in prize money divided among four schools in need, and your vote can make all the difference.
  • The entry with the most votes wins $100k, and 3 others will each win $50k.
  • Bing is giving away up to $900,000 to schools in need through DonorsChoose.org, a non-profit website where public school teachers can post classroom projects that need funding.  Be one of the first 30,000 to vote for your favorite finalists each day and receive a $3 donation code to redeem for the classroom project of your choice!
  • The voting phase started Friday, October 29 and runs through Sunday, November 7. America will be asked to vote on the 15 Our School Needs finalists as determined by the panel of judges. The winners will be announced Tuesday, November 9. (Please note, these dates are slightly altered from the dates you received in the original outreach letter from Mom Central.)


Here is singer Josh Groban who visited a local middle school in Queens, NY to drop off brand new musical instruments and participate in chorus class as part of the “Our School Needs” campaign kick-off.

I know the school I am voting for.  Help out a school in need, it only takes a moment of your time every day.  You can vote for up to FIVE (5) different entries daily. You cannot vote for the same entry more than one time daily.


"I wrote this review while participating in a blog tour campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Bing and received a gift card and DonorsChoose.org giving code to thank me for taking the time to participate."
