INVISIBLE CHILDREN

HELP HAITI NOW with a simple VOTE, give away $100,000 to Haiti relief and support IC’s work in Uganda!

I come to you with an urgent request.  Invisible Children really needs your help in the next 60 hours. We are finalists to win $1,000,000 from Chase Bank’s Charity contest, and the charity with the most votes wins.  It’s that simple.  We are currently in second place by 10k votes, and we know we can win this.  In my heart I know that Invisible Children would do the most with that money, and I have a moral obligation to fight my hardest for it.  It would be our largest grant by far in the history of our organization.

We are asking people to log on to facebook and vote for us in the contest.  On top of the $1MM, we are pledging $100,000 of our own money to fund a relief effort/team to go to Haiti in the spring. So, a simple facebook vote can both provide $1MM for ending the longest running war in Africa, as well as provide $100K to help Haiti in this time of crisis.  But this is only possible if we win this Chase award.

Can you help us win this thing in the next 60 hours?  It is the simplest of asks, a quick vote.  All we need is 10 thousand people to care enough to click a link, and their action will provide incredible work in both Haiti and Uganda.

People can go here to vote:  Chase Community Giving: Invisible Children

Social networking has already raised $21 Million for Haiti, let’s continue to use this platform and provide another $100,000.
