Target is giving away one $25 gift certificate for every 25 votes schools earn in their online promotion.
Thanks to Cindy Thierry for alerting us to this online promotion earning local schools some much-needed funds! Target is giving away $2.5 million in Target gift cards, and our schools need your votes. To vote, go to the Give With Target on Facebook site, search for the school you want to earn money and vote for them. (Note: You need a Facebook account to access the contest.) Schools reveive a $25 Target gift card for every 25 votes they earn, up to a maximum of $10,000 in gift cards. So far, University City High School has earned 22 votes—three shy of a gift card! (Vote for them here.) You can vote every week. Voting ends September 8 or when $2.5 million in gift cards have been awarded, whichever happens first.
