The Abreu Fellows are in the running for a $250,000 grant from Pepsi! They have applied as a group and will split the money between our 9 different programs, leaving $25,000 to fund a 2010-11 Abreu Fellow. $25,000 a piece will buy instruments for Lorrie’s kids in Juneau, Alaska, support Dantes’ teaching artists in Atlanta, GA, strengthen Katie’s El Sistema network in Durham, NC, and much more! But the grant is awarded based on votes, and Pepsi will only be giving out two $250,000 grants this month. So please, vote for them once a day for the month of March at http://www.refresheverything.com/elsistema

From all the Fellows, thank you for your support!
