Congratulations on getting your review posted successfully at last. Enjoy your vacation
Everyone else
Okay 45 reviews still leaves us 20 behind the current leader in our category. Only one week left so please this weekend, Vote for OCF. I already see some of you who prefer to read have taken the plunge. For those who have not, please consider this message from Great Non Profits:
[quote]Plus everyone who writes a review is eligible to win fun wellness prizes such as a free copy of Everything Changes: The Insider's Guide to Cancer in Your 20s and 30s by Kairol Rosenthal, free milk for a year from Organic Valley Farms, delicious baked goods from Dancing Deer Baking Co., spa packages from Osmosis Day Spa and Sanctuary, hotel stays from Joie de Vivre Hotels, and more![/quote]
So it's like a free lottery ticket! C'mon, this is a very easy way to support OCF. We do not even have one percent participation. Can 99% of you not be bothered? Please don't think you have to write an opus. You can fill this out with simple sentences like: I have found OCF to be very helpful to me - Just that, nothing more. My understanding of the rules is that VOLUME not eloquence nor length of replies is what it takes to win. So 100 one sentence reviews would help OCF more than 1 one hundred sentence review. One little sentence for each question, rate OCF 5 star, hit cancer fighter drop down, enter email and click, is it too much to ask? Please reconsider if you have not voted

Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 | 3 days left to vote The good news is that OCF reviews have just about reached one percent! As I type this there were 60 votes for OCF on the great cancer fighters site. We are still way way behind the Pediatric alliance but that could be that both parents vote for that group while on OCF it is usually either the caregiver or the patient, almost never both who post. Still, if you are reading this post, please reconsider not voting and click here: VOTE OCF Today charm __

| 3 Days to go! We are now up to 73. I sent out an email to everyone on the forum asking them to please review OCF. Hopefully that will lead more people to make a review. I am sorry that some of you who have already filled out the form will get this mail, but it had to be sent as a blanket selection of registered users of this board in the last 12 months. I have my fingers crossed. . . . | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 209 Gold Member (200+ posts) | | Gold Member (200+ posts)
Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 209 | Thanks Megan for the blanket email for registered users. I got it at work this afternoon and would not have known about this otherwise. I posted my entry immediately then went on to read the other entries and voted each one as helpful.
Thank again.

Joined: Dec 2008 Posts: 1,004 | I did this the other day I think....there is another thread somewhere right? When I clicked on the link from the first message here from Megan, it said I did it.
I think Charm had something out there and I don't want him upset with me!!! LOL Cookey said it best:)
