Selma’s Blackbelt Benefit Group (BBG) wants the public to help with a last-minute push in voting for a Levitt Foundation AMP (Your City) $25,000 grant.

“Voting ends tomorrow, Tuesday the 20th of November, so please vote,” said Andrew Slagel of BBG.

The foundation is looking to give a $25,000 matching grant to 15 cities to offer 10 free concerts. BBG and Downtown Gadsden Inc. are two Alabama organizations out of 41 nationally looking to make the top 25 in voting. From there, the finalists will go through a review process and the winners will be announced Dec. 18.

The public can log into www.levittamp.org, register via email addresses and vote up to five times.
