so, for those who may not know, jon’s sister, brooke, has a company called Brightest Star Foundations, which manages jon’s foundation in addition to others. the company is up for a philanthropy award. brooke is awesome, so you should all vote for her. =) this is the email she sent out today:
Recently, Brightest Star Foundations was nominated for a “Classy Award,” (or the Academy Awards of philanthropy), hosted by a website called StayClassy.org, a social media and fundraising website for non-profit organizations across the country.
And out of hundreds of nominations, BSF was chosen as one of five finalists for Philanthropic Small Business of the Year in Chicago. Now, it’s up to the voters to choose which small local business will move on from this regional round to the national level. Which is where YOU come in!
Your vote can help BSF achieve national recognition and even a $10,000 contribution for our clients’ foundations!
