LWB/Facebook Challenge

Facebook has a new charity challenge in play right now. Each day, the charity with the most unique donors (not highest amount pledged) wins an extra $1000! At the end of the fifty days, the charity with the most unique donors in the fifty-day period gets a grand prize of $50,000!

One of my favorite charities (LoveWithoutBoundaries) is in the running for money for many surgeries for Chinese orphans. http://apps.facebook.com/causes/view_cause/51591 If you want to donate (as little as $10 will help them win the daily $1000 prize), go to Facebook, create a user ID, and hit "donate" on the LWB page. If you're going to give $20, or more, watch the ticker...it ends each day at 3pm. You can help put them at the top over several days' time, if they are lagging behind a competitor. The wonderful thing about this challenge is that it is not the amounts donated, but the number of supporters!

That said, we're behind today...go create an ID and give $10 if you can spare it!
