Dear all of my Friends and Family,

I am writing this email because I care very deeply about a new program
I am working on and believe that with your support you can make it
happen with just one click! I'm writing to you today to request that
you go here and vote for me to win $10,000 in a contest on
ideablob.com. If our idea wins, we will be giving all $10,000 to eight
different non-profit organizations. Here's the backstory:

We have been working for the past year to create an exciting and
dynamic new website called BeRewarding.com. The idea is pretty simple:
You come to BeRewarding and answer multiple-choice questions about
global issues like Climate Change, Water, or Poverty, to name a few.
As you answer questions we show you advertisements for companies that
deserve our support for their exemplary social and environmental
practices. If you get the question right, we take the money from the
ad and give it to these non-profits. We have a few more bells and
whistles, but this is the essence.

We already have an Alpha version of the site so we don't need the
money to develop the idea or to build a site. We need the money
because even with such an obviously great website we can't sell ads
until we can show significant traffic figures, particularly in this
economic climate. But the site doesn't work if there's no money to
give to the non-profit organizations. This $10,000 will help fill that
void for the first month while we build our traffic, at which point we
will be able to sell ads and start earning some big money for these
great organizations.

So the competition is simple: We have to finish in the top two of this
week's sprint to become one of eight candidates in the final round
which runs from the 22nd through the end of the month. One idea wins
$10,000 per month. In the final, 2nd place is first losers so we
really need your help. We need you to go here and vote for us right
now. We need you to send this to your friends and family who you think
would be interested in supporting an idea like this. And we need you
to do it all again starting on the 22nd (Don't worry, we'll remind
you). Winners tend to get around 1,000 votes, so you can think of this
small act as a $10 donation to a really great organization. In fact,
it's pretty much equivalent to giving two kids in Africa access to
fresh water for the next 10 years. So don't even do this for us - do
it for those two kids, and thousands more whose lives will be directly
changed by the success of BeRewarding. But it all starts right here.

Many thanks and blessings to you,

Elise
