@Fard, Thanks for your input here. I agree–it’d be nice if Pepsi put together a little white paper, or an interview on lessons learned and key take aways for others.

Alex:

I have another word, but it’s not for the Pepsi folks — “sharing.” What I mean is that Pepsi is gaining a lot of learnings from this effort that could benefit the larger community seeking to foster long-term and sustainable change. Some of this knowledge should be shared for the benefit of all. I’m hoping Pepsi shares early and often.

Hopefully each entity that is funded will use the funds as a catalyst to extend their effort. That needs to include gaining additional funding, support, and promotion. Ideally, each recipient can become an ongoing change agent for good and beacon of social responsibility for Pepsi — win, win, win. You’re right, to make it happen the money needs to be directed to successes.
