Clorox: "Powering a Bright Future" with a $50,000 grant

Clorox Company is chipping in for a third year to help fund school programs - best of all, their letting us participate. Since October 24, 2011 people have gone to the Power A Bright Future Program website to vote for their favorite school program. All of the schools are competing for four $25,000 and one $50,000 grant. Voting ends December 9, 2011 and the winners will be announced in January 2012.

Grant programs are another example of how companies can and have been helping communities. The Power A Bright Future Program is great because it helps fund a cause that is vital - education. Another plus is that it allows everyday people to vote compared to having the company's staff give their opinion on the best program. Letting communities vote really helps the schools increase or start to create an environment of support. If it takes a village to raise a child, then the more collaborations there are that let community members participate, the better.
