Best Buy's @15 Results Are In

Thursday, August 5, 2010

Best Buy's @15 Campaign finished last Friday, July 30th, and the results are in. America SCORES, one of four national organizations selected to participate in this round of the campaign, will receive 26% of $250,000 (totaling $65,000).

With its @15 Campaign, Best Buy pledged $250,000 to be divided among four national nonprofit organizations, and let teens ages 13-18 be the ones to decide how much each organization received. Teens logged onto the website and earned points, which they later dolled out to their organization of choice. With the help of friends, supporters, volunteers, and even alumni from SCORES sites all over the country, America SCORES was able to earn a total of 150,188 points, enough to get an impressive 26% of the total amount. Thanks to everyone who voted!

Other organizations in the campaign include Truth, YMCA and Room to Read. To see the results of the campaign, check out the @15 Website.
