Public decides winning Honolulu school through Facebook and text message voting

Honolulu, Hawaii – (January 27, 2011) – A Honolulu school will win up to $2,000 worth of school supplies through the Remington College Adopt Our School program.

The goal of the program is to help out public schools in Remington College campus communities at a time when school budgets are very tight.

Here’s how it works:

All K-12 public schools within 30 miles of the Remington College-Honolulu Campus zip code are eligible and have automatically been nominated.

The public can vote for their favorite school via Facebook or text message. Anyone is eligible to vote, but can only cast one vote per day. Voting begins on January 31 and runs through March 13. To vote, people should go to www.Facebook.com/RemingtonCollege

The school that gets the most votes wins and will receive up to $2,000 worth of school supplies or educational materials that they request.

Last year’s winning school was the Hawaii School for the Deaf and the Blind.
