You all know me as Skully or Matt, one little thing you might not know about me is I work in the human services field, specifically with people who are diagnosed with developmental disabilities.
During the last eight years of time in this field I came up with an idea which started as a pet project, but turned in to a much bigger project.
I had several opportunities to combine my love of Traildriven Jeeps with my work in the human services field by taking people into the back country exploring the Colorado Outdoors. What I found is this demographic of individuals loved exploring the back country, but outside of what I did, there was not much opportunity for them. The programs I did see where very expensive and not everyone had the funds available either through there own very low income or through their services provided.
The idea for Walkabout Colorado was born!
However in this lame economy it is hard to start a project on the budget I got and not a lot of people are just giving away funds for projects.
Pepsi Refresh Project. Giving away grants to ideas and projects that better the community and people.
So at the end of all of this I need your help to win a grant. You must vote everyday on my project to move me up the ranking. I have to be in the top 10 to win a grant.You get 10 votes a day to vote on the 10 ideas you like the best including me of course.
Pepsi Refresh Grant help people with developmental disabilities experience the outdoors.
