Have you voted in Citi’s Every Step of the Way program? #EveryStep #Giveaway AD

Although the Olympics have come to an end, the Every Step of the Way campaign is still going strong!  Remember? Nine U.S. Olympic and Paralympic athletes. Nine programs in need. A $500,000 donation from Citi. You help decide where it goes with just a click. That’s what Citi’s Every Step of the Way program is all about, in a nutshell. Olympic athletes supporting programs to help others train and become the next Olympic athletes.   So now that the Olympics are over, it’s time for us to VOTE.

This post was created in partnership with Citi®. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

We watched a lot of the Olympic games this year.  It’s so fun to see athletes competing on a level like this. I’m not sure I could deal with the pressure but it’s awesome to watch! The Olympic Games are over, the Paralympic Games are mid-point, and it’s time for us to vote to support what these nine athletes are doing to support others.  Voting is quick and simple.  Visit the Every Step program page, mouse over which athlete you want to know more about and scroll through their slideshow (few slides)…at the end, you can click to vote.  It’s that simple.

  • Consumers can’t award funds directly, rather they are “helping” to award the funds.
  • Every sports program has a fundraising goal. Once that goal is met, consumers will not be able to help allocate funds to that program through Citi.com.
  • Consumers who are ThankYou® members can redeem their own ThankYou Points for a donation to the sports program of their choice. Any such donation would be in addition to the funds provided by Citi through the Every Step of the Way program.

    About Brett

    I'm a 40 something lifestyle blogger living in Connecticut with my husband and our 3 kids, plus our two rescue pups. We love to hike, travel, play games, watch movies, and just be outside together! Having 3 active kids makes for a hectic schedule and I try to share content, recipes and other things that can help to make today's busy family life simpler, easier, or just plain more fun!

    I started working full time at a local middle school in fall 2021 and some of my students are insistent that I am mean.

      I was most inspired by Rico Roman & Operation Comfort to help this country’s veterans.

      I would have to go with Alana Nichols and the Paralympics. This is such a great thing these athletes are doing.

    19. Janet W. says

      Picabo Street inspires me the most because she suffered a horrible injury and came back through lots of hard work and won gold. She showed that hard work pays off. I love that her programs supports treatment facilities for injured skiiers.

    21. Rebekka S. says

      It is such a hard choice to choose, I admire them all for their causes, they are so inspiring. I chose Rico Roman for helping our veterans.
