I'm kinda annoyed by this Pepsi campaign, because the organization Do Something has been doing this for years. This is what they do! Pepsi should have partnered with the organization instead of stealing its idea.

Not to hijack the thread, (I voted!), but Pepsi is actually one of Do Something's big corporate sponsors.

They didn't steal the idea - tons of corporations do it. What's wrong w/ a corporation tossing some money to great ideas that benefit the community? Coke does the same thing, but I don't think they advertised it as much. Besides, Do Something is geared towards teens. The Pepsi/Coke/Insert Other Corporations Here programs are open to ideas by all ages... and they typically award cash prizes to fund the ideas in amounts greater than $250-$500 (DoSomething's amount)
