Congratulations to our winner!
During our
Earth Month sign up campaign, many people donated to NC GreenPower
and received an NCGP reusable tote bag. Because one of our
e-newsletter readers Celena donated through last month's promo, she
was entered into a drawing to win an NCGP t-shirt. Thanks for the
donation, Celena and congratulations!
Donate using this link and get your bag, too!
