Tried it, but looks like you have to register through Facebook? I'm not on Facebook, but if there's another way to vote, let me know. Looks like a worthwhile charity.

Hi, Lainey

Thanks for the interest! You don't need to have a Facebook account.

You just click on Moira's pic then register. (I used a free yahoo account I use for these kinds of registrations so I don't get flooded with email and spam.) After registration, you vote.

This charity truly is worthwhile. We got a grant from an international health organization last winter and used it to send two trainers (including and MD) to Vietnam and Cambodia to train physiotherapists and other medicos last winter. Around 150 medios were trained and given certification. Now they are helping thousands.

This week Moira (our leader) is meeting with a connection to get a trainer to Rwanda - hopefully this summer if we can get the funding.

Please vote and tell your friends!

THANKS!!!
