Hello Friends, This is an urgent plea to vote in the Pepsi Refresh Challenge. Arms Wide Open Cancer Foundation was in 2nd place since Wednesday. 1st and 2nd place win a $250,000 grant from Pepsi!!! We were bumped into 3rd place by the USAction Education Fund. They propose to spend the money to educate people about the new insurance for young people 26 and under. It has no substance whatsoever, and is basically a scam, to get money for a political action group with its own agenda. Google it and see for yourself. Our children suffering from NB need this money desperately. September IS Childhood Cancer awareness month. I can't tell you how many children are needlessly suffering because the research money just isn't there. Parents whose kids are in treatment are holding bake sales, shaving their heads, organizing galas and golf tourneys to raise HOPE for their precious children. 250K is a lot of glasses of lemonade and every cent will go to research. So please help by VOTING and forwarding this e-mail to as many people as possible. Contest ends Thurs. Sept 30. That's up to 3 votes a day! Please vote every day. Vote via internet: (Make sure the vote counter in lower left goes from 10 to 9 after you click on "Vote for this idea.") You can vote for every email address you have, including your family.http://www.refresheverything.com/armswideopenchildhoodcancerfoundation You can also download facebook app to right of page and vote again. Vote via texting: Text Pepsi at phone # 73774 and enter 102653 in message box. Thank you so much for giving us HOPE, All the NB parents, fighters, and angels
