Remember back in August when we narrowed our choices from a lot down to seven? That was a long time ago. Now it’s time to vote. Read up on the three organizations you are about to vote for: one to give to, one to do for and one to promote. There are really just three steps to worry about right now.

1. View this slideshow

It’ll tell you who we nominated, what makes them so great, and help inform your decision when it comes to Step #2.

2. Vote for Your Organizations

I’m gonna be honest with you: I’m asking for your email address and I will in all good likelihood know who you are. I need it from you because without it you cannot follow Step #3. This is not going to be an anonymous vote (but I promise not to sell your information to a brain-eating robot)!

Voting has closed.

3. Await further instruction

The poll closes at the stroke of midnight, February 17. Check back the following day for the winners. You’ll get an email a week or so later with instructions on how to fulfill the less obvious parts (do and promote) of the pledge.

3a. Doop, doop. Donate.

I just can’t stop myself from asking you to donate one more time.
