Help Manna win $1 milllion!!!

I have some very exciting news to share! Two year ago, Manna Project participated in the Chase Community Giving competition, and won $25,000. This year, we’ve been invited to participate again, and we have the chance to win up to $1 million!! We are extremely grateful for the chance to compete, and excited about all the ways that the money could help the communities we work with in Nicaragua, Ecuador and Guatemala. Here in Nicaragua, the money would allow us to provide more financial support to the clinic in La Chureca, more microfinance loans to start-up businesses in Cedro Galan, and much more.

We need your help to win! Do you have a Facebook account? The competition takes place on Facebook, and voting starts today and goes for a week – can you take 30 seconds to help us? All you have to do is go to this link and cast a vote for Manna Project under the "youth developers" tab. If you have 30 more seconds to spare, can you help us even more and send this information to your contacts to encourage them to vote, as well?

Thank you again for all your support of my work here in Nicaragua and of Manna Project in general. I am incredibly appreciative, and feel blessed to have the opportunity to be here in Nicaragua for the year. I truly believe in the work Manna Project is doing here, and am excited about the additional possibilities we would have with this additional funding. Thanks for your vote, and please ask your friends to vote too! Let me know if you have any questions.
