Just got a mailing from Kiva about them being included as finalists in The American Experss Members Project online competition...

Excerpt below:

Exciting news! Kiva's entry "Loans that change lives" has just been voted one of the Top 25 in the American Express Members Project online competition. Only the Top 5 projects by popular vote will move on to the final round to compete for a $1.5 million First Prize. We need your help between now and September 29th to get as many votes as possible!
Do your bit to help here:
Kiva - Loans that change lives (left column - there's a box relating to it)

Kindest regards,
Karl.

    Can't vote because I'm not an American Express card holder. Signed up as a guest member which allows me to promote the project, but when I clicked on that there was a glitch - it said the project was not yet approved.

    I had to reload the page a couple of times before getting to the promotional page.

    It gives you lots of options: email your list, post to your blog or Facebook, social bookmark it, put it on Myspace, etc

    I did a quick post on Facebook. The whole process of becoming a guest and doing a Facebook post took 5 minutes so please use a few minutes of your time to help promote this.

      Yeah,

      I couldn't vote either - no AE, but I really hope they get the prize.

      That's excellent Rachel,

      I can imagine that's going to give it a lot of mileage.
