    Love your lens! I found a site from the United Nations, http://www.hungersite.com where you can click to help the world and it has a site to click to help animals too. Your site is great for it helps the voiceless, the animals have a voice.

    Fantastic lenses! Just look at all the amazing work everyone put in! I didn't enter the contest this time, but I DID just create a lens for a wonderful animal charity called the United Animal Nations! It is a wonderful educational and hands on program for taking animals from crisis into care - AND they give grants!

    I am very honored that my small contribution on Keep Wildlife Wild was one of the winning lenses.
    Great job Frankie.

    Hi, I sent you directions directly. But basicly, in the EDIT mode of you lens, in the right hand column, you select the PAYMENT OPTIONS and it has a pull-down menu of Squidoo charities to select from.

    I'm always up for a challenge! So I'll submit my lens one day before voting ends!

    I can't figure out how to set the lens to donate to a charity though. How do I do that?

    Thanks for letting me know Frankie. Well, here is the problem, I gave you the wrong url, sheesh! The correct url is http://www.squidoo.com/Social_Media_Fundraising. The one I gave you belongs to someone else and it is indeed a work-in-progress. Thanks again. - AmyP

    Any, your new lens: http://www.squidoo.com/social-media-fundraising is still showing as a work-in-progress, rather than a published lens. Please let me know when it is published so I can add it to the contest. (You do not have "contact" set up so I couldn't send you a message. Had to post it here.)

    Welcome to the Naturally Native Squids group. Don't forget to add your lens links to the appropriate plexos and vote for them.

    Hi Frankie - I just created a new lens and am donating 100% to the Wild Animal Sanctuary. See it here:

    I hope people will visit my lens and add to the lists of social networking websites.

    ArtDiva - you actually could vote for all of them if you want or as many as you'd like. :-) Bear hugs, Frankster

    Thank you for mention Of Dog Bytes. If I could, I would cast a vote to all lenses who donate to animal rescue and welfare, both domestic and wild.

    Great job! Everyone here is a winner!

    Guinness: I'm glad to see your support of animal related charities. Many of us have charities that are not on Squidoo's list yet that we donate to -- either money, time or materials. The Lensmasters on Squidoo are wonderfully caring folks and I salute you and the rest of them for all you do.
  • Guinness Oct 19, 2008 @ 4:39 pm | delete
    Frankie, this is a fabulous idea. Excited to see it in your "tweet." Thanks for raising awareness and funds in this fashion.

    I personally support various charities and help for individual rescued dogs...far in excess of any Squidoo earnings from all lenses combined. So I'm not sure how to present that. But I also did an appeal for support of HSUS' hurricane rescue efforts and PETA's activism to stop cruel animal testing on my Dog Training News lens (which covers so much more, all newsworthy things dog and a lot for cats and other animals). I embrace your efforts 100%!

    Hey pet fans! Adopt A Pet HQ is donating this month (well, probably this whole quarter, why not?) to First Coast No More Homeless Pets. Please click and link, there's dozens of great pet lenses here!

    Frankie, thanks for including FCNMHP in your efforts. I've been working with them for quite some time now and am happy that they are getting more cooperation from the community and those in N.E. FL. A number of my animal lenses -- feral cats -- support FCNMHP, plus I have done a lens on them: FCNMHP.

    I am excited to be entering this charity contest. Thank you.
  • Frankster Oct 5, 2008 @ 3:39 am | delete
    I agree. They are all winners as are the Lensmasters who donate their time and money to charity.
  • mulberry Oct 4, 2008 @ 11:01 pm | delete
    These are all very worthy charities and the lenses submitted are all so worthy of winning...it's hard to choose!
  • genglo Oct 4, 2008 @ 6:56 pm | delete
    Thank you for including Ferrets Unlimited in your challenge. One of the biggest challenges to rescuing animals is the high cost of great veterinary care, and every little bit helps. Thank you for all your hard work!

    My lens Lucky-Our Rescue Cat is about our cat Lucky Charm who was rescued and just arrived in our home today.

    5*s and a hearty SquidAngel Blessing for this beautiful effort!
