    Unfortunately, I only just received this forwarded note from our Woodbridge regiment and the "competition" deadline is at 3pm TODAY! So, if you can help out Harlan's effort to support his grand daughter's charity that would be awesome:

    There is still time for our little community to help out a member in his efforts, so if you can support this - please act quickly!!

    You can go here to make a donation: http://www.idea-league.org, Click Donate within the "Blue Charity Badge" (Upper Right) and follow the instructions.

    You can view the leaderboard here:http://www.parade.com/givingchallenge (Idea League is currently in second place, you can click on that link and make the donation there (it takes you to the same site to make the donation).

    I'm in.

    Note to others - all they are asking for is a minimum donation of $10 because the contest is all about numbers of unique donors rather than $ figures.

    I'm definitely in.

    Folks on the fence, this is a relatively painless way for you to get involved in helping someone who needs it.

    Please consider giving.

    Plus, it's a competition, and you know you love those, right? :)

    Stuff that ballot box :D

    I am in and I just sent it to my wife - hopefully they will count that as two separate donations.

    No hanging chads to worry about!

    This is one where every "vote" counts - in fact, we have moved up to within 47 of first place and 157 of out of the running by 11am.

    That means there has been a big push from a bunch of folks amongst the top five. It is going to be very very close right down to the wire.

    My wife is now in as well - I think we petition to have Engineers without Borders DQ'ed for US Based Claims. If they don't have any borders it certainly sounds Global to me :D

    Aaack! With less than TWO HOURS left, we are just 13 places behind those Engineer types, but the FARF are nipping at our heels just 17 away...

    and I can't reach my wife who is in a meeting - I figured she would be able to strong arm her entire office :(

    Time is short.

    Well they're closing in on first and you do see that as long they're in the top 4 they get the $50,000

    The Engineers have fallen back into third... but don't count them out of it. You know how they might be gaming the system.

    It looks like my call down to Mom might have reaped in a few extra donations amongst the Florida voters who were looking to be counted ;)
