The Nebraska AIDS Project (NAP) has been challenged by the Iowa AIDS Project with aRed Ribbon Shootout. The shootout will take place during the Nebraska vs. Iowa football game on November 25^th, 2011. NAP employees, volunteers, and friends of NAP are encouraged to help us sell Red Ribbons for $1.00 each. The state that sells the most Red Ribbons wins. The winning AIDS Project will get a traveling trophy delivered by the losing Project. We can sell Red Ribbons from 8 a.m. November 24^th (Thanksgiving Day) through the end of the game on Friday the 25^th. If you are planning a Husker game day party at your home, or if you have been invited by any of your friends to a game day party, we need your help selling Red Ribbons.  

Each Project will keep all proceeds they raise, but the winning one will get bragging rights and the travelling trophy delivered by the losing Project to their December event, which would be "Night of a thousand Stars" for NAP, and "Basket Project" for Iowa. If you would like to help with the Red Ribbon Shootout, please contact NAP at (308) 338-0527, or respond to this email message, and we will get some Red Ribbons to you!

Thank you,
