Dear RTF'ers,
EDIT: 4/13/2012 - since this was launched on RTF, Macon County has advanced in the rankings from 71 to 65. With this sort of progress, your help really could help this local shelter benefit. THANKS! Chris
If you would not mind taking the time, your votes (you can vote once per day) could help the Macon County (Illinois) Animal Control and Care Center win the Rachel Ray Challenge. If you vote for our local shelter, it would be very much appreciated!
www.votetosavelives.org - is the main link. As you can see, Macon County, is currently #71 in the rankings, is currently way behind.
This local shelter is operated, and salaries are paid by the local Macon County Sherriff's department.
My family has taken on quite an interest in this shelter. We have adopted some family pets here, and are currently fostering a litter of pups, now 7 weeks old today. The foster pups were born when their momma was in quarantine after being brought in by the warden from a city street. My wife, being a soft-hearted soul, fell for the email request for a foster home on one condition: EVERYONE MUST GO!
These funds are not to benefit me or my family personally, nor are they to line the pockets of any individual at the Shelter. They are to improve the facilities and help continue to find good homes for the incredible flow of nice dogs and cats, in need of a caring home.

You can vote every day, once a day between now and Monday April 16.
Sincere thanks for your help, if you have the time. Your votes can really help make the difference.
Again, Thanks very much.
Note: I just registered today and it took a while for my activation email to come through. The activation is a one-time thing, on the first day you vote.
