We are excited to share news announced this morning on the TODAY Show. Please help us spread the word!
Gateway Greening is one of four non-profit finalists for What Do You Care About TODAY?, a contest sponsored by the NBC(r) TODAY Show and the Pepsi Refresh Project granting one winning organization $100,000! Nominated by a volunteer, we were chosen from over 700 non-profits nationally. How to Vote Online: Go to http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/38027143/ <http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/38027143/> and choose Gateway Greening from the videos. Submit your Vote by viewing the brief Gateway Greening video, clicking "Submit Vote" and then clicking "yes" to confirm your vote. The designation "*Your pick" will show up under the video player confirming your selection. The TODAY Show featured Gateway Greening's City Seeds Urban Farm <http://www.gatewaygreening.org/CitySeeds.asp> , located in the heart of St. Louis right off Pine Street. The Farm produces affordable, locally grown food on land provided by MODOT. Its farmers, receiving comprehensive services provided by St. Patrick Center, are either currently dealing with or at risk of chronic homelessness, substance abuse or mental illness. The Voting Period ends on July 6 at 8 p.m. CST. The winning organization will be announced July 7 live on the TODAY Show. If we win, the prize money will help us do more at City Seeds Urban Farm: more farmers, year-round farming, and as a result, more jobs.
