The Army of Women wants YOU to hit the streets, PINK VESPA style. We are partnering with Vespa and Lifetime Networks this October to give away a limited edition pink Vespa LX 50 to the Army of Women member who recruits the most women in the month of October and November. The top five recruiters will be entered into a drawing to win the pink Vespa.
The limited edition pink Vespa LX 50 is the perfect blend of passion and practicality. For over 60 years, Vespa has been an international icon of Italian function and style. Audrey Hepburn showed us how fun they are to ride in Roman Holiday. Today, they are even more stylish as an alternative mode of transportation. Vespa scooters reduce pollution, traffic congestion and gas consumption…plus they get up to 100 MPG. Fun and easy to ride, automatic just twist n’ go.
This is your opportunity to get in the driver’s seat, steer us towards our one million women strong goal, and scoot away in a very cool pink Vespa. Here are the details:
The contest will be open from October 13, 2009-November 23, 2009. During this period, recruit as many women as you can to sign up and be part of the Army of Women. This is your chance to be creative! Host an event right from your own home, use your resources to host an awareness/recruitment event in your community, or simply sign women up by word of mouth. (Please note: The recruitment numbers that will count towards the contest will be tallied ONLY FROM OCT 13-NOV 23. So, even if you already recruited 25 friends back in June, unfortunately, we are unable to make that count. We appreciate and always encourage our Army of Women to spread the word, but due to contest guidelines, we must abide by the time restrictions). We will tally up the numbers from November 23- November 30 and a winner will be picked on November 30 at a live results drawing!
When you direct people to the armyofwomen.org to sign up, make sure they pick from the referral field "Vespa Contest". They then must enter your email address in the corresponding field. This is the only way for us to keep track of how many women you are recruiting.
The winner will be asked to use the pink Vespa to promote the Army of Women and chronicle their personal journey to recruit women for the Army of Women through an online blog on www.armyofwomen.org as they raise awareness for the cause.
Excited to share your story about how you helped the Army of Women recruit for the Vespa contest? We’re happy to hear from you! Blog about your experience and take pictures during your recruitment event. Send your pictures to info@armyofwomen.org or notify us of your blog at info@armyofwomen.org.
If you decide to form a team to work on the Vespa contest, please know we can only provide one pink Vespa. You are more than welcome to work together, but one email address should be entered for the group and one individual from the group will have to take on the responsibility of the Vespa, should you win. We also welcome any organization that wants to be considered. Again, please know we can only provide one pink Vespa. For organizations, when you direct people to the armyofwomen.org site to sign up, make sure they pick from the referral field, “Vespa Contest”. They then must enter your organization name in the corresponding field.
Please make sure you read the official rules before you hit the road recruiting for the Army of Women!
It's that simple! We need you to be creative, energetic, and over the top and help us reach our goal of one million women. Now, get your "thinking helmet" on, and let’s take breast cancer beyond a cure.
