Subject: St. Marcus Lutheran requests your help!
I hope this email finds you well. I am reaching out to you on behalf of St. Marcus Lutheran School and the
exciting contest that Kohl's is running- called Kohl's Cares for Kids where they are about to award $10 million
to 20 schools! The winning schools will be determined on the basis of votes on Facebook. The winnings of
$500,000 each will go to the schools with the most votes on Facebook and we need your help.
As it stands now, none of these philanthropic dollars will stay in Wisconsin, it is all going to New York, Florida,
California...out of state! So we need your involvement, your friends involvement and your friends' friends involvement!
Administrators from St. Marcus have taken to the roof of St. Marcus School in Milwaukee and ARE NOT coming down
until the school earns enough votes to reach and stay in the top 20 schools in the nation for the KOHL'S CARES
CONTEST on Facebook! Their intent is to not only call attention to this contest and ASK YOU TO VOTE, but to make
a broader statement about education. No matter where you live, worship or go to school, working together can
accomplish amazing things for students! As an urban Lutheran school, winning $500,000 will enable St.Marcus
to expand their campus, to serve and minister to over 600 students and families with a Christian education!
St.Marcus Lutheran is the only WELS school in the top 40 schools at present. You can vote for St. Marcus
Lutheran and also vote for your favorite WELS school at the same time. Each person gets 20 votes, with 5
being the max votes per school.
CAN WE COUNT ON YOUR 5 VOTES? WILL YOU PASS THIS EMAIL ON TO YOUR STAFF/MEMBERS TO VOTE?
Time is of the essence, because the contest ends this Friday! Thank you for your support!
Your votes CAN make a difference and help bring a Christian education to thousands of children in
Southeastern Wisconsin!
Please Vote 5X for St. Marcus!
