The Baltimore Station is honored and excited to announce that they have been chosen to compete against three other nonprofits across the country in the Home Depot Aprons in Action contest this month! Aprons in Action is an online program from The Home Depot Foundation, which provides significant funds to nonprofit organizations dedicated to improving the homes and lives of U.S. military veterans.
The winner will receive $25,000 from The Home Depot Foundation, so they need your help to make sure The Baltimore Station comes out on top! Let’s help The Baltimore Station join the Ravens, Orioles and Blast to keep the winning streak alive in Baltimore!
Here’s what you can do:
1. Go to www.baltimorestation.org/vote. This will take you to the Home Depot Aprons in Action application in Facebook.
2. Select The Baltimore Station and VOTE!
3. Vote once a day, every day during the month of April.
4. Get more votes from your friends, family, neighbors and strangers! Tell them about the contest by sharing it on your Facebook page, forwarding this email, picking up the phone and giving them a call – they need all the help they can get to win and continue supporting the veterans who need our help the most!
To win the $25,000 prize would forever impact The Baltimore Station and help improve the quality of life for the 144 homeless veterans currently in the program. If they are fortunate enough to win the prize, a team of community volunteers, program residents, donors, board members and organization staff will partner with Team Depot for a volunteer day to rejuvenate and repair many areas of the organization’s two facilities, which are the homes of veterans who are turning their lives around.

Remember to cast your vote on Facebook once a day, every day this month so we can keep the winning streak alive in Baltimore! I’ve also included some sample Facebook posts that you can use on your own page if you would like to share this contest with your network. Thanks for your help and support!
