gwyn | Calling all animal lovers

Hey you guys, the rescue group I volunteer with is up for voting on the 12th for a car in the Toyota 100 Cars for Good program. Motley Zoo, our group, is in desperate need of a dedicated vehicle for bringing animals to adoption events, ferrying them to vets and new families, not to mention to fosters like me. This is kind of a make or break event for them -- they may not be able to continue without another car, and no donations have been forthcoming for them (I'm going to see how it pans out, and if it doesn't work, see if there's something we can do to fund raise in a different way, but the person who runs it is feeling overwhelmed, I think).

Unfortunately, we are pitted against three other animal organizations -- the luck of the draw. There are five groups per day in need of a vehicle up for voting on the site, and while it's really hard to choose, you can vote in the Toyota program every single day if you want, to make sure many different groups get a car. I've been voting for a lot of groups, myself.

To vote for Motley Zoo,

- Go to www.100carsforgood.com (it is run through Facebook, sadly, so you'll need a FB account, but it's for a good cause!! really!!)

-Click the dog icon next to “Motley Zoo Animal Rescue” to expand our profile
-Click “VOTE” which pops up underneath the dog icon
-Click “CONFIRM” to make sure your vote counts!!

There's even a li'l video there, and some of my past foster dogs are in it! Winnie is the little black dog getting her paw prints on the banner (and, um, I'm in it, too but I'm not going to tell where). And if you can pass this along to other people, on LJ or Facebook or Tumblr or wherever, we will be eternally grateful.
