charity favour for a friend, it does not involve money
« on: January 24, 2011, 10:54:25 pm »
I recieved this today from my friend Bonnie in New York...perhaps we could give a bit of help it does not cost anything for you to vote.

"Claire, can I ask you for a favor?

I have a friend who lost his wife to a riding accident last year. I think it would've been understandable if he'd never wanted to see another horse again, but on the contrary, he's had the far more beautiful response of committing himself, in her memory, to the care and well being of her sweet Haeflinger (did I spell that right?), Charm, and right now, to trying to win a grant for a handicapped riding program that she was involved in.

That's where I'm hoping you can help! The grants are awarded based on votes, with the top 10 programs being awarded money. The riding program keeps being stuck at 11!

Unfortunately there is a registration involved (usually I won't vote if I have to give info but I made an exception for this one) - but I was wondering if you would mind voting, and even better if you had a circle of horsy friends to whom you could pass the word?

Thanks for whatever you can do. I would LOVE to see these guys make the jump to #10!

Hi, Vote made. Pleased to see they are "no 9".  My mum also died in a Horse riding accident so this I have some idea of how your friend feels.  My dad, sister and I still keep horses as its what we did as a family with mum.
