We are now doing MUCH better in the Pepsi grant competition and rather than falling, we are CLIMBING! We are at #86 with a bullet! If you want to see some good news, click on this link and read through the posts. We have a LOT of support from all across the country- http://www.pigeons.biz/forums/f5/please-help-mickacoo-pij-amp-dove-resuce-wi... Please don't be shy about asking *your* friends and family to vote for us every day. They can always say no but some will say yes! If folks want a daily reminder, they can email to this address- pepsichallenge-subscribe@mickaboo.org (They do NOT have to be Mickaboo volunteers or adopters or entered in our database!) There has been a little confusion about how many times per day one can vote. Here's the scoop- -Each person who votes for a Pepsi Project gets 10 votes per day (*but they must be used for different projects*) -If you vote online AND text, it appears that you can vote twice a day for Mickaboo without breaking any known rule -Please do NOT vote for Mickaboo with multiple email addresses that are really yours (proxy voting can get us disqualified) And here are the results of my informal survey yesterday (Note: not every respondent answered every question): I SUPPORT THIS FUNDRAISING EFFORT AND THINK IT IS A GOOD IDEA 8 YES 1 NO I AM VOTING &/OR TEXTING MY VOTE DAILY 9 YES 0 NO I HAVE GOTTEN MY FAMILY & FRIENDS INVOLVED IN VOTING DAILY 8 YES 1 NO I HAVE GOTTEN MY NETWORK (COLLEAGUES, FACEBOOK FRIENDS, OTHERS) INVOLVED IN VOTING DAILY 7 YES 2 NO I WOULD LIKE A DAILY REMINDER TO VOTE & TEXT 3 YES 4 NO I THINK WE'RE TOO SMALL &/OR THESE THINGS ARE TOO RIGGED FOR US TO WIN A 1 YES 8 NO (8 think it is worth trying) I AM OPEN TO DOING MORE IN SUPPORT OF THIS EFFORT 4 YES 2 NO 2 MAYBE We CAN do this if we try hard enough! Please VOTE http://www.refresheverything.com/mickaboobirdrescue AND text 105245 to 737774 to help Mickaboo & 'Coo be able to continuing to provide vet care to sick and injured birds.
