Must Read Today - Vote for Rett Syndrome Research Through the Pepsi Refresh Project
August 31 2010

Dear Rett Friends,

I’m asking for your help to win $250,000 for Rett Syndrome Research. Each month Pepsi sponsors a competition and awards money to the ideas that receive the largest number of votes. Rett Syndrome Research is currently in first place and could win in August. The Rett community has been frantically voting but we are at the last day and have dropped to 3rd place (#1 and #2 win money). If IRSF (International Rett Syndrome Foundation) receives the most daily votes through August, we will win $250,000 which will then be matched by the Pioneer Foundation for a total of $500,000. This is a huge amount for our small organization.

I’m asking for your support in 2 ways:
1)Please vote today -- the final day -- you could truly make a difference in our search for a cure.
2)Please get anyone you know who may support our cause to vote.


You can vote 3 ways

1. Vote via Text: Text 100842 to Pepsi (73774)
2. Vote with your Facebook account! http://bit.ly/cxGvaf
3. Vote at Pepsi Refresh http://pep.si/dhuXn3

It's been a roller coaster these last few days and it will continue until midnight tonight! Yesterday, we bounced between 1st and 3rd all day. At one point, the #1 spot changed three times in the span of just one hour! It's clear that the vote counts are extremely close - the rankings are literally shifting minute by minute, and the focus today is to haul in every last vote possible. This race WILL go to the final hours and minutes, and every vote is critical!

We URGENTLY need YOUR help or our Rett angels will lose out on $250,000 towards rett syndrome research for treatments and a cure.

Thank you so much for supporting the Rett Syndrome Research Cause.
