Hey all,
As some of you know, when not on HG I run a charity that helps kids in downtown Toronto attend tutoring and then post-secondary school through scholarships, using basketball as a hook. Anyways, we are down to the final 10 for a $50,000 grant, and we must finish top 4. If you could spare even a few minutes to register and vote it would be great - you can vote once per day per email, up until Friday.
Step-by-Step Process
1) Go to mlseteamupfoundation.org/giving/team-up-foundation-fund/
Voters need to register again to vote for the final round.
There is a “Register Now” section for this to happen.
2) The security codes at the bottom of the section (the scrambled words) are an extra level of
security specifically used to deter bots that could enable false votes. These security codes are
standard practice for organizations such as Ticketmaster. If people are having issues
deciphering the 2 words, there is the option to click and get two more words shown. These are
not meant to be easy to decipher because they are there for security.
3) Once you have registered, a confirmation email will be sent to the email address submitted for
voting. There is a link that you will need to click that will bring up a confirmation page that will
allow you to proceed with placing your vote.
a. Voters who have registered are not supposed to email the Team Up Foundation after
they have registered to confirm their email address. Please wait until the confirmation
email has been sent and confirm via that, not by emailing our organization.
b. Some email systems are de-activating the link in the email. If this is the case and the link
is not active when it is received, they can do one of two things.
i. Copy the entire link and paste it into the website browser address bar
ii. Using your mouse, copy the link and then hit right bar of your mouse which will
open a menu. Go down the menu and click hyperlink. This will activate the link.
If it still doesn’t work when you click on it (but it is highlighted), hit the control
button on your keyboard while clicking on the link.
4) Once the confirmation page has come up, you can then proceed to voting, and the vote will be
once daily. You will not have to register again once this process has been followed.
5) Vote for the Toronto Lords Community Association at mlseteamupfoundation.org/giving/team-up-foundation-fund/ after registration.
thanks,
