The Progressive Slate
We are a nonprofit coalition that is helping raise money for progressive groups by competing in the Pepsi Refresh Everything online giving contest. In 2010, we won over $1.6 million in grants for 34 different progressive causes. We're going again in 2011 and hoping to win over $5 million by the end of the year.
You can read a bit more about the campaign here (although the site hasn't been updated since January): http://www.theprogressiveslate.com/…slate.html
All the organizations work together to recruit people to sign-up to be daily voters...and they got a short email every morning reminding them to vote each day.
We've used the slogan..."working together to raise money for progressive causes"...but it's not a hard and fast slogan. Our entire audience is online and almost exclusively progressive activists (think MoveOn) who are passionate about things like a green economy, alleviating poverty, LGBT rights, etc.
