Donations decided!

Here's an update on who's getting the money, as soon as I receive the check (expected very soon): At the contest closing date, the leader in the combined "Worthy Causes" poll (which won the Kaboodle contest) was ICAN. This organization ALSO received the largest number of mentions in all the comments! So it will get the largest portion of the donation. But the other two groups in the "Worthy Causes" poll, So Others Might Eat and The Nature Conservancy, also got many votes, so they will each receive a donation, too. Two other organizations also received a significant number of mentions in the comments and will also receive donations: Vegan Outreach and AAFSW. Soon I will post the full tally of causes/organizations mentioned in the comments; stay tuned. Don't forget to check out my Zazzle gallery, where proceeds further benefit some of these groups! Thank you all for your support! Best regards, ~ Wendy
