I need your help blogging friends!

I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner but I need your help!





Well not me exactly but a good friend of my daughter's....there is a young man she is friends with and he is trying to win a scholarship for college. They are running out of time and I am sure once you read this young man's story you will understand why we are all working tirelessly to vote for him.

**This is now closed, thank you to all of you who voted for our friend, I appreciate your help and the time you took!**
Bobby is a Semifinalist of the High School Football Awards.....a big accomplishment so far. You can read his full story on the link below and there is a video that you can watch too. This sweet young man has overcome some tragic obstacles in his life and is working on a great future, he wants to become a police officer or teacher.

My daughter has spent countless days voting for him with a group of friends and family, I am so proud of her dedication to helping her friend out. My middle daughter has also been running home from school to vote for him as well.  Please take the time to vote for him, it would mean so much to me. You can vote as many times as you like! Of course the more votes the better! Once you go to the link you can click on stories, images, video to get an idea of who this young man is. Just click on the red VOTE button, you will have to put in a verification code and it will tell you if it went through or not. I couldn't think of a better way to spend my time than helping a deserving young man out with his future!  Thanks!

Take Care,
Dee

  6. Hi Dee,
    I just read Bobby's story---What a deserving young man. My son is a senior this year and he has the same career interests--a teacher or police officer. He struggles as well with school and works very hard for his grades. I would be so happy to vote for Bobby. Thanks for giving us the opportuntiy to help him. I wish him all the best!!
    Let us know what the result is.
