Please help our Pittsburgh-based partner GTECH win $50,000 to fund a project in central city New Orleans. Sunflowers are being planted on vacant lots in blighted areas and the seeds are being processed for bio-diesel. Through February you can cast your vote once/per day: www.refresheverything.com/gtech
