We’ve made it to Round 2! Vote to help us reach the finish line!

Jan08

Written by Katie B.

Thank you to everyone who Voted for First Book’s idea to Launch the Global Resources Network in round 1 of Change.org’s Ideas for Change in America! We’re thrilled to have moved on to the next round of voting, but we need your help!

Please vote again in round 2 to help Launch the Global Resources Network at Change.org. A Global Resources Network would allow anyone serving disadvantaged children to gain access to resources and collaborate to create a vibrant educational environment for the kids they serve. We’ve created the video below that describes the idea and the impact it would have on children and families in need across the nation.

Voting ends January 15th, so don’t miss out! Cast your vote and tell a friend.

The top 10 ideas will be presented to the Obama Administration on Inauguration Day and will be supported by a national campaign run by Change.org, MySpace and more than a dozen leading nonprofits after the Inauguration. So each idea has a real chance at coming to life. Thanks for your help and your vote!
