I know that many of the people who follow this blog are also a part of the Registry's Facebook group, so many have already heard about this...
Just in case, though, I wanted to post an announcement that the Registry is in the running to win $20,000!! The Chase Community Giving Campaign is underway, and they are awarding a prize to the top two hundred vote-getting organizations. As I write this, we stand at #42, so if the contest were to end today, we would be an award recipient!
However, the contest doesn't end today. It ends on July 13th. So, there is still plenty of time for other organizations to campaign to get more votes. This is where you, dear reader, come in!!
If you are on Facebook, go here to vote in the campaign! You'll need to "like" the application, and then go through a couple of other steps to actually vote, but please don't let those extra steps put you off!! Every single vote counts!
If you're NOT on Facebook, this would be an EXCELLENT reason to join! Give us your vote, and invite your friends to vote for us, too! Imagine what we could do with $20,000!!
Once you vote, feel free to leave a comment on the page that talks about what the Registry means to you. Adding a personal touch to the page is a great way to encourage people to vote for us!
I would also like to mention, that if we make it into the top 5, we'll get $100,000, and if we get the most votes, we'll get $250,000! So, let's keep shooting for the stars. I know we can do it, because when we first started campaigning, we were like 5,000th on the list, and look how far we've come to become number 40!! So, let's keep going!!!
