About a month ago I shared that Write On! was a finalist in the Glamour Magazine/Sally Hansen "Best of You" contest. I would like to thank you all for your kind words of support and for taking the time to vote for me on the contest website. I was blown away by your amazing and positive response.
I have been informed that Write On! is one of four grand-prize WINNERS!!!!! The prize is a generous grant for Write On! projects plus a three-day trip to NYC to visit the Glamour headquarters and be in a photo shoot that will be featured in a future issue of the magazine. This will be such wonderful exposure to help spread the word about Write On! I am absolutely thrilled.
Also, we helped raise more than $5,000 for DKMS, the world's largest bone marrow donation center. Thank you!!
Have a wonderful week! I'll be giddily dancing around my living room! :)

Vote for Write On!!!
Hi everyone! I have some VERY exciting news, and a favor to ask of you:
My literacy organization Write On! is up for a $5,000 grant from Glamour Magazine/Sally Hansen! Now is voting time, and votes are a big factor. Each person can only vote once.
I'm really trying to spread the word because this would be SO huge for Write On! It would help us create more Holiday Book Drive Chapters, award more scholarships, and get more kids excited about reading and writing!
Here's the link to vote: http://www.glamalert.com/sally/
You have to give your name and contact info so they can make sure each person only votes once. They say they won't use your info or give it to anyone, but of course if you don't want to, I understand.
However, if you do feel comfortable voting, and spreading the word to your friends -- even to just two or three people who you know would vote -- that would be fantastic!!!
