SONIC Limeades for Learning: Review and Giveaway

September 2, 2010 By admin

As my daughter enters Kindergarten this year, I realize now more than ever, the importance of education. In order for my daughter to develop a love of learning, it is imperative that she have the materials needed to succeed and a creative teacher. Just like in 2009, SONIC and DonorsChoose.org are again stepping up to the plate to make some of these classroom dreams come true with the Limeades for Learning program! Last year, SONIC donated more than $600,000 to public school classrooms around the country. By October, SONIC customers, friends and fans will have directed more than $1 million dollars to support teachers in local communities.

By visiting the Limeades for Learning site, you can find your favorite public school teacher’s classroom project. Beginning August 30th, you can vote for your favorite project once per day (no purchase necessary to vote). On Friday, the votes are tallied and the teacher with the most votes receives complete funding for their project! If the votes exceed 1 million, SONIC will donate an additional $100,000!

I took a look around and found so many creative projects! I wish I could fund them all! Because I am a Scientist living in New Orleans, I decided to help fund a Science project at a school effected by Hurricane Katrina. This program, which is in need of a Wii console for Virtual Surgery, is helping to train students for careers in nursing.

Limeades for Learning: SONIC Giveaway

My husband is a high school teacher, so any promotion that helps teachers, schools and students peaks my interest! SONIC is beginning a program called “Limeades for Learning” on August 31st which will provide grants to U.S. public school teachers to fund classroom projects by partnering with a wonderful organization called DonorsChoose.org, a National leading non-profit website which helps to fund projects requested by teachers. This September, SONIC will donate more than a half million dollars to fund classroom materials and inspire learning.

Teachers can register their projects at Limeades for Learning in order to become eligible for the grants from SONIC. From August 31st through October 1st, each time you purchase a drink from SONIC, it will be specially marked with a unique code that will allow you to vote for your favorite teacher program at Limeades for Learning. Each week for five weeks, the teacher projects with the most votes will receive funding! And the giving doesn’t stop there! Customers that are inspired by a particular teacher project will have the additional opportunity to donate their own money to that project. From soccer balls to ESL materials, computers to microscopes, these teachers have a mission to teach or youth. Help support these projects and purchase a SONIC drink today!

SONIC wants to inspire you all to become citizen philanthropists by rewarding TWO lucky Not-So-Blog readers with a $25 SONIC gift card and a $25 DonorsChoose.org giving card. You will use the SONIC card for yourself and use the giving card to donate towards your favorite teacher project at Limeades for Learning! It’s a win-win situation!

How to enter:

1. Visit Limeades for Learning and search the teacher projects. Tell me to which project you would give your $25 giving card.
