Help Earn Up to $10K for Rivertowns Schools

An initiative from Target can earn Irvington, Hastings and Dobbs Ferry schools big bucks for the upcoming school year.

By Krista Madsen

Target aims to give away $5 million to national schools this fall, and which schools win the money is up to voters.

After clicking this link for Target's "Give With Target" Facebook app, you can plug in a specific school Dobbs Ferry, Irvington or Hastings, or use your zip code.

Once a school gets 25 votes, it receives $25. After this, each additional vote wins the school a $1. This can add up all the way to $10,000, which could be an exciting bonus to the budget-weary schools. 

Voting is open up through September 21, or until Target hits their $5 million mark, whichever comes first. Voters have to be 13-years-old and up and can vote once per week.
