Help Evergreen Elementary Win a $50,000 Grant

The program that receives the highest number of votes will be awarded the $50,000 grand-prize grant.

Teachers and parents give students the building blocks they need to learn and grow, but sometimes they can use a little outside help.

As school budgets nationwide continue to shrink, The Clorox Company’s Power A Bright Future grant program steps in to help fund new a brand new Robotics program.

After a competitive national nomination period, now it is time for our community to show its support.

Help Evergreen Elementary win up to $50,000 by casting votes. The voting starts Nov. 12.

Through Dec. 19 at 11:59pm EDT, adults and children 13 and older can visit www.PowerABrightFuture.com to vote once a day for the program they believe is most deserving of a grant.  Neighbors, friends and family can also vote for their favorite school right from their phones via text message (Message and Data Rates May Apply).

The program that receives the highest number of votes will be awarded the $50,000 grand-prize grant, and the next top vote-getters in the Play, Create and Explore categories respectively will each be awarded a $25,000 grant. Clorox’s judging panel, will select three additional lucky schools, one in each category, to win a $25,000 judge’s choice grant.

Evergreen Elementary can be one of only seven schools nationwide to win a grant, and you can help push our school to the top.

Visit www.PowerABrightFuture.com for more details and official rules. For more information, please contact Principal Carolyn Wills at (909) 594-1041 or visit their website at www.evergreeneagles.org.

I wasn't talking about that, when did that happen, '73? Richard Nixon? That was a colossal waste ofRead More money. Nixon also started the EPA. Not many realize what a worthless Liberal he really was. He also took us off the Gold Standard which was the genesis for out of control gov spending.

How many people in wheelchairs, or blind people walking around have you ever seen in Walnut? I'veRead More lived here since 1968, I haven't seen one, not a single one. I have nothing against the handicapped, I do have a problem with the money it costs to jackhammer up sidewalks, and put ramps that nobody needs, especially 5 feet from a driveway aprin.

How about Hillary's failures: 1) Bill cheated on her 2) She was beat out for President by a Negro.Read More That is sure to "get" southern crackers like the Clintons, no matter how liberal they are. 3) Through incompetence, she is responsible for the deaths in Benghazi and covered it up.

You are so cynical, Hillary is awesome! She enabled the North Koreans to test a nuclear bomb withoutRead More consequences, turned Egypt into a hostile nation supporting the Moslem Brotherhood, supported the overthrow of Khadaffy in Libya, which is a paradise of Democracy now- take a romantic tour of Benghazi to prove it. Your nasty comments might bring on another fainting spell! "I declare, can a gentlemen get a lady a lemonade and a parasol"

Can anyone name even one of Hillary's accomplishments in the last four years? Other than maybe theRead More Benghazi debacle.

So this sounds like a good reason to keep the proposed NFL stadium OUT of Southern California.
