Thumbs up Jihad request - for kids who need lunches!

Hello all,

A charity that our office supports and volunteers at has found itself with the opportunity to win some cash in a social media vote-off.

The charity - Brown Bagging for Calgary's Kids helps support children around Calgary that would otherwise go without lunches, and families who need a hand with groceries.

The lunches are made by volunteers each day, and then distributed to numerous school's around the city. Its a great organization, and it provides a tangible benefit to kids who might otherwise go without.

The voting goes until November 30, and the charity with the most votes will recieve $8,000. To put it in perspective, we created ~400 lunches this morning, and the cost for each lunch is $1. $8,000 would go a long way.

You can help out by clicking the link, and hitting the vote button for Brown Bagging. As far as I understand, you can vote once per day. Currently BB4CK is in third place, but I've seen what CP can do. Let's Wannamaker this.

Thanks in advance to those who take the time to vote. Much appreciated!

Voted and shared the link on Facebook.
Although Pacekids is a pretty good program, I have to support CP.

Much appreciated guys. If I add the company wide email to this, hopefully the dial will move a bit in their favor.

Voted. It would be interesting if someone could analyse the script and see if it only counts one vote per day. Looks like it could be vulnerable to one of those auto-vote scripts if not.

Voted.

It looks like it tracks IP though. Multiple votes don't increase the # of votes for Brown Bagging.

Um, is that Antosz guy sponsoring this himself? If so, the superman under his shirt is pretty appropriate. Also, shows that orthodontists make too much money but that is just jealousy talking.
