  • Pepsi Refresh Project Demi Moore for GEMS (Girls Educational & Mentoring Services)

    Posted by admin on February 5th, 2010 and filed under organization services | 21 Comments »

    Demi Moore is joining the Pepsi Refresh Project with a grant idea to support GEMS (Girls Educational & Mentoring Services), an organization that empowers young women, ages 12-21, who have experienced commercial sexual exploitation and domestic trafficking to exit the commercial sex industry and develop to their full potential. With $250,000, GEMS can train 10 former victims as outreach workers and employ them to go back in their community and help refresh the lives of thousands of victimized girls.

    Pepsi is giving away millions each month to fund refreshing ideas that change the world. The ideas with the most votes will receive grants. Support Demis idea for GEMS by voting for her at www.facebook.com/refresheverything.

    Join the Pepsi Refresh project today; your vote will help great ideas become reality. For more great grant ideas, or to submit your own, visit www.refresheverything.com

      Demi’s grant idea is wonderful BUT if Kevin Bacon’s idea wins, thousands of people will be able to get a piece of the grant money to donate to THEIR OWN charity! GEMS can get that money through sixderees!!! It’s a win/win! Vote for Kevin today!

      What is with Pepsi and the blatant ripoffs? The Sour video and now the Chrome ads. Weird. Such an embarrassing lack of ethics in an otherwise good cause.
