[blparent] Quick vote will help Seedlings Braille Books!

[Jo Elizabeth Pinto]

It's a button, and I think it says Vote05 or something similar.  The site 
isn't easily accessible, unfortunately.

"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, 
compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of 
the weak and the strong.  Because someday in life you will have been all of 
these."--George Washington Carver, 1864-1943, American scientist

>> The process is a bit cumbersome.  You need to follow the link:
>>
>> http://artvancharitychallenge.com/
>>
>> and then click on Vote.  You'll be asked to register, using your first 
>> and last name, zip code, e-mail address, and a password.  Then A list of 
>> organizations will come up.  The list is quite long, so if you have a 
>> search option (in Jaws, it's control-f), look for Seedlings.  Check the 
>> box, then scroll down to the Vote button.  You'll also be asked if you 
>> want to share the voting request on Facebook or some other social media 
>> sites.

>> As I said, when I registered last year, I received a promotional e-mail
