Garden At Every School campaign!

[Ethan X]

Dear all fans of healthy food and happy kids,

I am a school garden science teacher...

And this winter I submitted my dream of "Good Food For All Kids: A Garden At Every School" in the "Ideas for Change in America" contest at www.Change.org

Our idea is currently in 2nd Place in the "Food and Agriculture" category and just a few days away from advancing to the final round! 

(The final round will be from March 1st to 11th ... open competition between 60 leading ideas for the Top 10 winners! )

This will be a huge challenge for us to win, but I believe we can do it!! 

Our only chance to win is to get off to a fast start with a concerted social networking campaign that quickly generates thousands of votes...

This is why I'm launching a new Facebook group, called School Gardens Across America

(Address -- http://www.facebook.com/group.php?v=wall&gid=323041926571 )

Please join us at the Facebook page and help win this contest for all kids!! 

Ideas for Change in America is a crowd-sourcing competition that empowers citizens to identify and build momentum around the most innovative ideas for addressing challenges our country faces. 

The 10 most popular ideas will be presented at an event in Washington, DC to relevant members of the Obama Administration, and Change.org will subsequently mobilize its full community to support a series of grassroots campaigns to turn each idea into reality.

Thank you and sincerely,

Ethan Genauer, Washington DC
