Turbana is giving a prize of $25,000 based on a daily vote to a "community-based" nonprofit. Voting ends Aug. 11, 2014. http://tinyurl.com/turbana25k "When the Contest is over, Turbana will work with the winning organization to support the cause of the organization’s choice. The $25,000 will go toward a program that Turbana and the winning organization will craft together, and that will benefit the community." The contest started July 1, so we would need to jump in fast. The top vote-getter thus far has over 300 votes.

To nominate or vote, please go to www.Win25kforYourCause.com (the Contest Site) and follow instructions. Be sure to 'Like' the page.

Must have Facebook account to nominate or vote.

This voting every 25 minutes for 25 hours is a great opportunity to move PANDORA ahead in the voting. Sitting at a computer and voting is one thing that many persons with ME can do.

I have taken the liberty of posting about it in the community lounge.
