Bing "Our School Needs" : Help Vote For Your Favorite School

I've recently learned of this great initiative spearheaded by Bing called "Our School Needs". In this campaign, 15 schools in the country have been shortlisted with a particular need in mind. The needs vary from school to school.


For instance, the Bear River Charter School needs a library while the Roosevelt High School needs computers and the Bishop Mcguinness High School needs a new pavillion.

Now here's where it all gets nice and exciting...
Well, Bing is being super generous and awarding a quarter of a million dollars in prize money, that will be divided among the four highest voted for schools in need. (The school with the highest vote will win 100,000 US$, while the next three schools will win 50,000 US$ each)
And YOU can help!

From now till Sunday November 7, 2010 VOTE for your favorite school in need, after watching all 15 videos. (Voting began on October 29th but don't worry you still have a few days left).

That's not all, Bing is also giving away upto $900,000 to schools in need through DonorsChoose.org, a non-profit website where public school teachers can post classroom projects that need funding. If you are one of the first 30,000 to vote for your favorite finalists each day, you will receive a $3 donation code to redeem for the classroom project of your choice!

So hurry and click, click, click those keys for a good cause!
