Clubs January Eblast

Hey!

Happy New Year! A new year brings new goals, and we at DoSomething.org are working hard to make lots of improvements to the Clubs Program! That includes our new Monthly Clubs Challenges! These are Clubs-Only Competitions for the chance to win sweet prizes including t-shirts and a $1000 Clubs Grant!

February's Challenge is for our Teens for Jeans Campaign. The Club that collects the most jeans wins  t-shirts for the whole Club! And when you're not collecting jeans this month, why not apply for a $1000 scholarship and help DoSomething.org earn some MONEY!  Even if applying for a scholarship isn't your thing, there are still lots of ways you can help us win!

In other Clubs news, come join us in Miami for our Social Action Boot Camp for some great workshops on how to make your club and projects more effective.  Be sure to bring your whole club!  Read on to learn more.

Cause of the Month: Homlessness

1 in 3 homeless people in the US are under the age of 18.

Start a Teens for Jeans Drive in your school and drop them off at an AƩropostale between now and February 14th. Get a 25% off coupon for every pair of jeans you donate! And make sure to submit your project by February 21st because the school that collects the most jeans gets a pizza party for the whole school! Plus the Club that donates the most jeans gets sweet Teens for Jeans t-shirts for every Club Member (up to 40 shirts)!

Check out the PSA featuring Justin Long and Ashley Greene.

Win a $1000 Scholarship and Help Us Win $$$!

DoSomething.org is one of 4 charities chosen for the Best Buy @15 $250,000 Contest! The money will be divided based on total number of votes, so more votes equals more $$ for DoSomething.org.

This contest is REALLY important to us! So please register and get all of your Club Members and friends to register and vote for DoSomething.org. The more money we win the more programs, grants, and prizes we can provide to you!

New Monthly Clubs Challenges!

We're coming out with brand-new Clubs-Only Challenges! February's Challenge: the Club that collects the most jeans in our Teens for Jeans Campaign wins awesome Teens for Jeans t-shirts for every member in their club (up to 40 shirts)!

And get ready for March's Challenge: Clubs Madness! We're going to split all the Clubs up into 4 regions: East, South, Midwest, and West. The best Club Project completed in the month of March from each region wins a $500 Club Grant! We'll then have a vote over the weekend and chose the $1000 Grand Prize Winning Club!

Does your Club have what it takes!?
