Kendall Auto Alaska vote update - why your vote is so important to this Food Bank
Thank you to the many faithful donors (and in this case, voters, as well) that support this local Food Bank. We would not be here, serving about 200 people and 20 or more local agencies EACH DAY, without you!
Kendall Auto Alaska is doing a promotion that could win the Fairbanks Community Food Bank (and three other agencies) $5000. That is vital for us this time of year when our regular donations are at their lowest point of the year.
Taking just a minute a day and voting on the Kendall Auto Alaska Facebook page is all it takes to help us stay in the top four (the top 4 are the only positions funded). This is the easiest way to earn $5000 we have ever had and we don't want to miss the opportunity.
As it stands this morning:
Boys and Girls Club has a whopping 232 votes
Make-A-Wish Foundation is a close second at 224 votes
We are a distant third with 113 votes
Autism Society is not too far behind us with 96 votes
United Way of the Tanana Valley is at 89 votes
Literacy Council is at 64 votes
Closely following them is the Special Olympics with 63 votes
RCPC comes in next with 48 votes
Breast Cancer Detection Center has 21 votes
And Rescue Mission has 17 votes
Only the top four will be funded. Please go online today (and every day thru next Thursday, April 26th) and vote for the Fairbanks Community Food Bank!
(They only allow one vote per computer per 24 hours so if you vote at 4pm one day you have to wait until after 4pm the next day).
