Thanks to a special Target promotion, Bullseye Gives, Facebook users have a new opportunity to help the kids of St. Jude. Target has earmarked $3 million to be distributed to St. Jude and other charity partners. Facebook users will determine how much of the $3 million each charity receives.
For two weeks starting May 10, Target will feature St. Jude and nine other national charities on its Facebook page. During this time, visitors to www.facebook.com/target can vote once a day for the charity of their choice. On May 26, Target will announce the final donations to each charity, based on the percentage of the vote each charity received. So if St. Jude receives 50 percent of the votes, the Target gift to St. Jude would be $1.5 million.
The Bullseye Gives promotion runs from May 10-25. Go to www.facebook.com/target every day to cast your vote for St. Jude. Tell a friend and help the kids of St. Jude.
MemphisConnect is a partnership between The Leadership Academy, MemphisED and Simple Focus. We provide a gathering place for diverse Memphians to share the opportunities, initiatives and activities that inspire them to make Memphis home.
