Reminder! Today is your last chance to vote! If you haven't already, go and vote for KaBOOM! in the Global People's Choice Award!
Normally a post like this would fall under a different Forums category, but I wanted to make sure it fell across the most eyeballs as possible.
The KaBOOM! website has been nominated by the ePhilanthropy Foundation for "Best Community Building/Volunteerism and/or Activism Campaign".
Finalists for this reward are non-profit organizations that uses exceptional online strategies, techniques, and opportunities to support community building, volunteerism and/or activism. I'm sure that everyone here on the forums and registered on the website can see that this award describes KaBOOM! to a tee.
But we didn't build this community. You did.
Each time you answer a question about fundrasing, every suggestion for a kids side activity you've provided, all those hints for building on a hot day-- each time you've posted here on the forums, you've built our community. So they really haven't nominated us, they've nominated you.
So go vote for yourself and vote for KaBOOM!
I voted earlier myself and it literally takes 3 seconds. Voting ends on September 17th so hurry and get yours in before the deadline.
Thank you and remember what they say, vote early and vote often!
In my zealousness to inform everyone about this great award, I gleamed over one small detail.
