Another Contest To Benefit Animal Shelters
The Animal Rescue Site and PetFinder have launched an online contest called the "$100,000 Shelter+ Challenge," with prizes as follows:
Grand Prize: One $25,000 grant
Runner Up: One $10,000 grant
State Winners: Fifty-four $1,000 state grants
Weekly Winners: Eleven $1,000 weekly grants
Voting began on September 29th and ends at midnight (PST) on December 14th, 2008.
In more Chicago-style voting, you can vote more than once ... but "only" one vote per person per day. (Hmm.) And this time, our Canadian and other international friends can vote, too!
We currently are the top ranked shelter in Montana, putting us on track to win the $1,000 state grant at the end of the contest.

Please bookmark that page so you can vote early and vote often!

The other animal shelter contest, Care2's "America's Favorite Animal Shelter," doesn't wind up until November 1. If you haven't voted for the ranch in that contest yet, you can do so here.

Thank you!
Since 2004 I've been hitting this site almost daily--it give six bowls of food to a needy animal. It's also the same site for the above contest:

Just a quick note for all, you can sign up to have a daily reminder email sent so you remember to click everyday & then go vote for Rolling Dog Ranch! I also click for several other causes, breast cancer, literacy. There are about 7 sites that you can do a daily click to help fund different things. Great idea & it is free! I have been voting for RDR since the contest started, sure would be nice to see your name up there in the top 10.

I found the contest at the Animal Rescue Site a couple of weeks ago & saw you all were listed & voted. I try to go to that site as often as I can to click so a bowl of food can be donated. So now I have 2 very good reasons to go daily!

I voted, and for the rest of us non-Americans, the short form of Montana is MT. I'll admit to having to guess a couple of times before getting it right.
Good luck Steve and Alayne!
