Calling the Underground Army: Please vote! (WERF has won, thank you for the support!!!!)

As some may be aware, last year I completed a swimathon to raise money for Endometriosis research. Thanks in large part to the tremendous support of this community, [url=http://www.justgiving.com/swim-marathon]over £550[/url] was raised for the cause. I have not planned any charity events this year, but I would greatly appreciate it if you took a few moments to vote (via Facebook) for the [u]World Endometriosis Research Foundation (WERF)[/u] at [url]http://www.SistersGive.com[/url]. The winning charity will receive $10,000. [spoiler]At the moment it looks likely that a cancer charity will win. Unlike cancer, Endometriosis research is not fuelled by billions each year, or supported by thousands of organisations. It is far easier to raise money for cancer due to much higher awareness and the associated fear-factor, but if I say "Endometriosis" most people will look blankly. Endometriosis is a largely ignored epidemic which effects as many as 1 in 10 women during their prime years of life. It can cause infertility and, in more severe cases, debilitation, or death. For lesser known conditions like Endometriosis, $10,000 is a hugely significant sum and will go a long way towards increasing awareness.[/spoiler] Please vote as often as you can (I believe that you can vote daily*). Thank you #SeventhColumn! [quote]Edit: [b]*Just noticed voting does not end until 22nd of April. May want to set voting page as one of opening tabs on your internet browser.[/b][/quote]
