Air Miles for Charity

Some of you know that I am a Shriner (Luxor Temple). We operate 22 hospitals for children in North America. We operate these hospitals at no charge to the parents. A few years ago, United Airlines launched the 10 million miles giveaway program (an online voting contest). Last year the winner's share was 3 million miles, with the remaining miles going to the charities in 2nd through whatever place, I assume, this year's winner will receive the same 3 million charity miles.

The Shriners use the air miles to reduce our cost of transporting the children, to the hospitals, to receive the required specialized care.

The Shriners Hospital is only one of the charities entered into the United Airlines contest, I would appreciate a vote for the Shriners, but if you see an other charity that you wish to vote for, please do.

The contest is over on Dec 25th. Voting is at 10 Million Charity Miles Giveaway you may vote once a day per device.

Thank you for your support,

Noble Ray

Just put one up for you and the Shriners Ray! Awesome charity. I also saw Wounded Warriors on there, so please dont be offended if I offer them a few too. The site says I can vote everyday...SO I WILL.

Thank you and all the Shriners for all that you do!:yes:

Yeah, they do, something like 1/3 to the winner, 2nd and 3rd get a bit less and all others get 25,000 miles. All good charities, thanks.
