Youngstown

There are two days left to vote for September’s Pepsi Refresh Grant submissions.

Still in the running locally are Channel 19 at Austintown’s Fitch High School, the Rich Center for Autism, Multiple Sclerosis Dreams, Youngstown’s Williamson Elementary and Jacob Harris of www.epicdonations.com.

In order to win one of 32 grants Pepsi awards each month, ideas must be ranked in the top 10 on the last day of voting in their

respective grant-amount categories. The top 100 ideas in each category will roll over for the next month’s voting to be applicable for the grant again. Votes, however, do not carry over from month to month.
