2010-01-18 3 min read Uncategorized

Here’s one of the mail that I received from the IndiBlogger team.

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Dear <a class="zem_slink" title="Amit Agarwal" rel="homepage" href="http://www.labnol.org/about.html">Amit Agarwal,

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Here is a unique opportunity to reach out and impact thousands of lives through your blog. Yes, sitting at your desk and writing a <a class="zem_slink" title="blog post" rel="homepage" href="http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=136782277130">blog post can help educate 40,000 young Indians all over our country!

<span style="font-size: x-small;">One of <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/india" title="India" rel="geolocation" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=28.6133333333,77.2083333333&spn=10.0,10.0&q=28.6133333333,77.2083333333%20%28India%29&t=h">India’s most trusted and credible <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/non-governmental_organization" title="Non-governmental organization" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-governmental_organization">NGOs, <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/giveindia" title="GiveIndia" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GiveIndia">GiveIndia is taking part in a competition on <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/facebook" title="Facebook" rel="homepage" href="http://facebook.com">Facebook to win a US$1 million grant. The winner will be the NGO that gets the highest number of votes from Facebook users. The prize of $1 million will help put or keep 40,000 children across India in <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/school" title="School" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School">school for one year!

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Imagine the IndiBlogger community coming together to spread the word and help the <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/poverty" title="Poverty" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty">underprivileged children of India. The impact would be tremendous and together, IndiBloggers and GiveIndia would be able to gather the votes we need to win.

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Voting in the competition is for one week only, from Friday, January 15 – Friday, January 22, 2010. Can we make a difference in the next 5 days? We sure hope so!

<span style="font-size: x-small;">The link for voting, where you can also see more details of the competition is

<span style="font-size: x-small;">There’s been lots of talk about how <a class="zem_slink freebase/en/social_media" title="Social media" rel="wikinvest" href="http://www.wikinvest.com/concept/Social_media">social media can bring change and make an impact on the world we live in. Well, here is one tangible way for us to take a small action that could have a HUGE outcome.
