Help Duke's lemur center win $50,000 with just one click!

By David Shiffman, on March 8th, 2010

Pepsi is trying to “refresh the world” by giving away grants to lots of non-profit groups. One of the categories is “the planet”, and the Duke University Lemur Center has been nominated! If they get enough votes, they could win $50,000.

The Lemur Center promotes research, education, and conservation of some incredible (and endangered) animals. They are hoping to use this grant to build a new tour path, allowing more visitors to learn about lemurs and how to protect them.

To vote, simply visit the Lemur Center’s “refresh everything” page and click “vote”. You can connect using your facebook account or by creating a Pepsi account.
