Dear friends,

 

You have undoubtedly already heard about the "Kohl's Cares" contest on Facebook. I want you to assure you that this is REAL! We have the opportunity to raise a half million dollars this week for one Adventist school! 

 

Each of the top 20 schools will receive $500,000. Mt. Ellis Academy, earlier this afternoon, was in the 21st position, and has slipped to #23 as of this email. Like I mentioned, only the top 20 places get the money. We are now more than 4,000 votes behind the money spot!

 

Just think, you can help raise ½ million dollars with 3 minutes of your time.

 

This is real money that will make a major difference on this campus. Won't you take a few minutes and vote if you have not and to contact your friends and family and ask them to vote as well. The contest ends this Friday, wouldn't it great to be able to say this Sabbath that we pulled together and were an Adventist family that helped this school? 

 

This is not the time to worry about helping someone else when you have your own school nearby. Mt. Ellis is the only Adventist school in a place to realistically be chosen, so let's be family and help them over the top. 

 

Please, please let's pull together and help this school.

 

Follow the instruction at this link: http://mtellis.com/kohl-s-cares and log into your Facebook account to vote. Each person may cast 5 votes. If each of you receiving this email vote, that will bring in more than 10,000 votes!

 

Thank you,

 

Larry
