United We Roll at Stardust Radio

Chase Bank is currently running a donation contest on Facebook in which The Hugs Project Inc is competing. A group must be in the top 200 to receive a portion of prize money. To be at the top, would be a huge win. WITH YOUR HELP, The Hugs Project Inc might just make it to the top of the list! You can only vote once.

Only a few days are left as the voting ends midnight 7/12. This contest is being run on Facebook. Hugs really needs the money to help with the care package supplies and postage. As you can see by the information below from Karen Stark, this organization has been hard at work for 6 years providing thousands of care packages to young men and women who are deployed to areas where they do not even have access to base stores or facilities.

Please ask your friends and families to vote for The Hugs Project Inc on the Facebook page BEFORE Midnight Monday, July 12th.

You can also find the link to vote on our Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/UnitedWeRoll. Look for the Blue Hand Logo!

Below is the info that I received from Karen Stark at The Hugs Project Inc.

From Karen Stark/The Hugs Project Inc -

The Hugs Project has been hard at work for the past 6 years (since June 2004) sending cooling ties and care packages for the troops and sewing machines, warm childrens' hat (winter months), school supplies and school bags that the troops share with the locals as part of their hearts and minds project.

Like most nonprofits, right now, we're struggling to find funding and without funding, we'll have to close our doors just like other small troop support groups before us. You know our troops depend on the care packages, supplies and respect we provide them. So, for us to close would be a very bad thing.

We're competing in a contest on Facebook with Chase Bank and we're trying to win $20,000 so that we can send 4,000 Christmas care packages. Our postage bill last year on 3,855 was over $44,000 and the USPS has increased the price since then.

What your listeners would need to do is open a browser to Facebook/ChaseCommunityGiving and do a search for The Hugs Project. Once on our page, they would "LIKE" Chase, then click "VOTE NOW" and "SHARE WITH FRIENDS". It only takes about a minute to vote if already have a Facebook account and about 3, if they don't.

Thank You, Stardust Family!
