Our charity needs your VOTE right now!

Hello my dear friends and blog followers!

As many of you know, my husband Rusty and I founded a charity several years ago that helps orphans and vulnerable children around the world. Right now our charity, The Sound of Hope, is in a video competition called "Project for Awesome" - and voting is ONLY tonight and tomorrow. If we are one of the videos with the most votes, we could win a LOT of money. (Last year the Top 20 videos got $40,000 each! WOW!) Our goal is to win this funding for education for our kids. That amount would be more than enough to put ALL 200 of the children we care for in school for an entire year. That means every single little boy and girl in our care - in Thailand, Burma, India, and Swaziland! And we all know, education changes everything for a child in poverty.

All we need is for people to VOTE! That's it! You don't have to sign up for anything or log in - you don't even have to watch the video if you don't want to (but it's pretty awesome if you do!) - just click on the link and then click the red VOTE button. It only takes a second!

(and help us win thousands in educational funding for children in need!)

And if you're feeling really helpful, we would LOVE it if you'd share this with your friends on Facebook, Twitter, etc. Maybe you know of a group of friends you could share it with via email? Or a facebook group you could ask for help? Anything you're willing to do on our behalf would be a blessing! It's going to take everyone we know working together to make this happen!

Voting ends at 11am Sunday morning. (So ask your friends in Sunday School to vote too! Just go to ProjectForAwesome.com on your smartphone and search for "The Sound of Hope". )

Please help me give our sweet kids the gift of EDUCATION for one more year! Just one click could change a child's life!

Love you all so much - thank you in advance!
