Energizer is Helping Preserve America's National Parks ~ $10 Walmart Gift Card Giveaway

National Parks are our greatest natural resource and something many of us have probably had the opportunity to visit and enjoy. In fact, every year, hundreds of millions of people visit them to enjoy their beauty! I have fond memories of our national park visits growing up and hope to give my kids those same experiences as well. It's a fun way to enjoy the outdoors and time spent together as a family. That's why it's so important to preserve these landscapes so future generations can enjoy them as much as we have. Thankfully, Energizer agrees and I was very excited to hear more about how they are raising awareness to help preserve America's national parks!

Energizer has teamed up with the National Park Foundation to launch a public effort to power and preserve America’s national parks. They are committed to helping preserve these landscapes so future generations can enjoy them as much as we have! Helping to launch the program is outdoor enthusiast, Peter Facinelli of The Twilight Saga and Nurse Jackie. The program brings awareness to the importance of preserving our country’s greatest natural resources and gives people a number of ways to get involved.

Live Facebook Chat with Peter Facinelli

Peter Facinelli fans can chat with the actor and outdoor enthusiast on Wednesday, April 20 at 1 p.m. EST. To participate in the chat, visit the Parks tab on the Energizer Bunny Facebook page.

National Park Week

Now through April 24, the country celebrates National Park Week. Not only can everyone receive free admission to all national parks this week, but people can also text BUNNY to 27722 to trigger a $1 donation from Energizer to the National Park Foundation, up to $50,000. Energizer’s goal is to donate $400,000 to the National Park Foundation this spring, and the public can help them get there.

Product Purchase

Right now in stores specially-marked Energizer products contain a special code so when someone buys three participating products, he or she can go online to www.nowthatspositivenergy.com/blogs and redeem the codes for a $10 reward toward a national park adventure or elect for Energizer to donate the reward directly to the National Park Foundation.

Get Hands On

For the people who prefer to get more hands-on, they can RSVP to join a now that’s positivenergy™ national park volunteer event by visiting www.nowthatspositivenergy.com/blogs or facebook.com/energizerbunny and clicking on the Parks tab. While there, visitors also have the power to select one of the park recipients through an online vote, which runs from Monday, April 18, through Friday, May 13. Each park hosting an event will receive a grant from Energizer and a donation of responsible power solutions including solar panels, chargers, batteries, solar lights and other lighting products.
