Hey guys...
I remember seeing a few people here ask for votes for a Pepsi Refresh project and when I voted I had a look around to see what it was all about.
I can't remember who the members were, but if any of you has entered or know someone that has entered a project, any insight as to how many votes it takes to run in the top bracket?
They don't tell you how many votes a project gets, just it's placement.
Reason I'm asking is I'm thinking about entering my mom and grandma at the end of the year, and I'm wondering what the chances of pulling this looney idea off are.
Any insight would be appreciated!
I'm just trying to figure out of I should work towards it, or just try a solo donations gig, but I don't think the donations gig will work too well unless I get a lot of churches on board, which I may be able to do, but right now I'm just brainstorming.
Thanks!
EDIT
I'm sure I'll be asked what I'm entering for... My mom and grandma were both hit by a drunk driver 23 or so years ago. My mom has had 7 operations, and is now bed ridden. She developed something called Arachnoiditis from a mixture of her broken back and the shady operations. My grandma has had to have her knee's replaced, had 2 back surgeries, and had to have a spinal drip pump installed in her back.
They are poor, live together off of a combined $1,300/mo or so, and have a $650/mo mortgage payment with $55k left to go on a shitbox triple wide with no handicap access.
My mom raised 3 of us, and the child support on the youngest brother runs out next month.
I'm trying to help her keep the house, and since my own projects are 99% fail 1% profit right now, it's the only way I can try.
Thanks again guys!
