Support Peaceful Posse
Exciting new things are happening with our Peaceful Posse Program! Over the summer months new initiatives, like the mother/daughter group, will begin. We will also
be reviewing and enhancing our curriculum and evaluation process. Thanks to the generous support of organizations like the Valentine Foundation and the Seybert Institution, many of our groups are partially funded. However, we are still in need of matching funds in the amount of $5,000 to fully fund these groups.

CLICK HERE to contribute to the Peaceful Posse Matching Fund.

Bid with Your Lid and Support PSR

http://www.stonyfield.com/SpecialOffers/BidWithYourLid08

You are one click away from the easiest form of support you have ever given!!!

Each year through its Profits for the Planet Program, organic yogurt maker Stonyfield Farm donates 10% of its profits to efforts that help protect and restore the earth. In 2008, Stonyfield Farm has chosen to donate funds to PSR and two other environmental groups through a special consumer promotion on its yogurt cup lids. Stonyfield Farm will give each group $20,000, and will print a promotional message on 20 million yogurt lids, asking consumers to “Bid with Your Lids”. Each of the organizations will receive a percentage of $40,000 equal to the percentage of votes they receive.

Please cast your vote(s) to support PSR. This summer, log onto ww.psr.com and enter 1 vote and/or collect the limited edition lids and cast multiple votes by mailing the lids to Stonyfield Farm (each lid equals 1 vote for PSR).When you Bid with Your Lid, you will help support PSR. No purchase necessary.

Many thanks from PSR to you.
