No worries Micko, I really do hope we can generate some momentum here... was trying to figure out a way to vote via SMS as well, there are so many free international sms apps right now, somethings gotta work right.

Great news folks.

The bank in question contacted St Pauls to tell them they have 50% of the votes so far...

Basically the money is divided as follows: 1st place - €5,000, 2nd place - €3,000 and 3rd place - €2,000

[QUOTE=floridaorange;839578]Your heart's def in the right place Chanty, however Mark hadn't posted this 24 hours ago yet, so you may have canceled out your vote.

If you vote once each day, make sure it's been a full 24 hours.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Micko;839293]My wife works as a Special Needs Assistant in a special needs schools with kids who have moderate to severe Autism and other special needs.

Staff levels are low, funds, even lower

One of the local banks has offered donate EUR 10000 to local childrens' groups.

And so, my favour is:

log onto [URL]http://www.betterireland.ie/[/URL],

next click "vote online"

next click, Dublin branch, followed by "Artane" within Dublin branches,

next click "St Pauls Special School"

All it will cost you is an email address, so that the votes can be monitored

I'd really appreciate any and all votes.

Thanks
