Hi y’all,
I need a big favor. I really want to go the Netroots Nation conference in Las Vegas on July 22-25. Unfortunately, the costs of attending this conference are extremely prohibitive. Registration starts at $295. Luckily, there are 40 open scholarships for people who cannot afford to attend. There is a catch, however. (Isn’t there always?) The scholarships are awarded partly on a voting system so can you please, please, please vote for me?
Just in case you need an added incentive to vote for me, here’s why I want to go to Netroots, taken from my scholarship application:
Because of my disabilities, I have been on SSI (disability) for the past five years and simply cannot afford to come to Netroots Nation. However, I would use the opportunity to learn how to become a better blogger, activist and advocate for women and people with disabilities.
So now that you know why I want to go to Sin City in July, please click on this link and vote for me!
Thank you!!!
