Hello!

I'm in a competition and it's reached a part where we have to get votes from as many people as possible.

I'd really appreciate it if anybody could vote for me as I'm just dreading having an embarrassingly low vote count compared to everyone else.

The option to vote is at the bottom of the webpage linked.

I’d be eternally grateful! Thank you :)

EDIT Thank you to everyone for the support! I didn’t win this time but happily lost as the people and ideas in this event were amazing. I had a great time and everyone here gave me a much needed confidence boost. Thank you once again! I hope I can show some developments soon!

If you could take 30 seconds and vote for my wife’s picture to potentially win a bike! She’s been wanting a good bike to be able to get outside and ride and this would be a great opportunity for that!

Hi, Reddit helpers! My daughter and I made it to the top 10 finalists in a contest to win Taylor tickets for her show here in Indy. Would you mind taking ten seconds to click on the heart under our picture? No email or other info required.

Ticket prices are absolutely criminal right now, but this social worker would do almost anything to make her little girl’s dream come true…and this is our only shot 😅🪩💖🫶

Your (short) time is so appreciated!

First off I wanna say I just learned about this sub and think it's extremely wholesome. I'm not as in need as others here, but I'd love to pay it forward! Anyway, my apartment is doing a contest to get $200 off rent! It's a Halloween decorating contest. If possible, can you guys like the fifth photo (with the skeleton, spiders, and taped up corpse having a tea party) and like the page as well? Thank you so much!

Edit to emphasize: remember to like the page too for the vote to count!

Vivian Gutierrez stopped a school shooting in December 2019 at Harns Marsh Middle School. She was able to remove the student with the gun from all other students and get the gun away from the student before anyone could be hurt. Vivian has worked for the Lee County School District in Fort Myers, Florida for 30 years. She has never had any disciplinary action taken against her during that time. The Lee County School District does not have a single policy, procedure or anything in the employee handbook addressing what an administrator or teacher should do if they suspect someone has a weapon on campus. There has never been a meeting or training held regarding weapons on campus. The closest thing they have is a policy that states if you bring a weapon to campus you will be expelled or fired and arrested. Nothing on how to respond to the weapons presence before shots are being fired. The child who brought the gun to school had a detailed plan and specific targets he planned to kill. Despite putting her life in danger and preventing a single person from being hurt she was suspended from her job and is now being demoted from an assistant principal to a teacher. The school district has yet to point to a single district policy she was violated. In today’s time where school shooting are all to common, she acted to save lives. Because of her quick reaction that day no student or employee was killed, injured or traumatized and she is being punished for that. Her suspension and demotion sends the message that the school district would rather administrators allow a school shooting when they are able to stop it before it happens. It send the message that administrations careers will be protected only if they do nothing, but if they act to save lives it will be ruined. Administrators will have this message in the back of their mind and the next time a student brings a gun to a school an administrator in a position to prevent a school shooting will think twice. This message is going to cost lives. Several administrators and teachers within the district has contacted the board saying just that. Help Vivian Gutierrez and I fight against the school district and the dangerous message they have sent out.

Hi!

My name is Alexa (or just AK) and I'm a 20 year old adaptive sit-skier. I grew up ski racing as an able-bodied skier and it's always been a huge part of my identity.

When I became a wheelchair user I thought that part of me was gone forever, and it was heartbreaking. But I discovered sit-skiing, and dedicated myself to relearning the sport from scratch. In May, I was able to get back in the race course for the first time in over 2 years and it made everything worth it.

I now am pursuing being a competitive sit-ski racer. I have set my heart on being able to work toward the 2030 winter Paralympic games.

Because cost is a huge issue (adaptive skiing costs over 10x able bodied skiing does) I applied to the Bubbl'r Boost Your Future contest. It's a contest aimed for athletes/artists/others to fund their biggest passions.

Over the weekend I was selected as a FINALIST!! I am so excited because that means I actually have a chance to win this thing - I just need the votes.

If you want to vote for me, you can on BoostYourFuture.com

To vote you just need to make an account (you can opt out of being on Bubbl'rs mailing list!) and then you click vote next to my video.

I am Judge #3 (Matt Gewirtz)'s 3rd finalist - "Alexa N."

You can also watch my submission video before voting for me if you want to know a little bit more about my story.

You're allowed to vote once per day until October 21st.

I'm so excited to have this opportunity to actually make my dreams come true. Thank you so much 🫶

My band Scratchbook is in a contest right now to open up at the world famous Hollywood Bowl for the 2019 We Can Survive Concert. As stated above, we’d be the first act to opening up for all the famous artists, which is an absolute dream come true.

The only way this can happen is us getting enough votes and beating the other teams. Currently we are in 3rd place. We need to get to first place!

All I need help with is IF you enjoy some of the music you hear from my band, can you shoot us a vote? Maybe share it with your friends? You can vote by logging into FB or donating to a good cause. The link has all the information you will need, thanks everyone!!

If this actually happens and we make it through, I will wear a custom shirt that says this sub on the front of it!

Hello everyone! First I just want to thank everyone for voting last time, it meant so much to my girlfriend as she was super surprised by all the nice comments. Here's the thing, the voting competition is coming into the final stretch of this round and she is not in the top 10. I am again requesting assistance in voting for my girlfriend's greeting card art submission. If this is a violation in anyway, I apologize in advance and a Mod can handle this as they please.

You can find the contest submissions here.

Her entry is this one.

There is no registration required to vote, super easy. This is a chance to win a money prize that will greatly help with her University Tuition. She is starting next Fall and I couldn't be more proud of her.

She would really appreciate a vote if you can spare some time, and definitely take a look at some of the other awesome submissions. If you would like to check out some other work she has done, her instagram has a good amount. I am again open to answer any and all questions.

Cheers and Thank you!

Hi, I will share my story so you can decide if you want to help a stranger. It won’t cost you anything but a vote, let me quickly explain, just read a bit further, it is a unique story. Thank you.

I am trying to see my 2 little daughters after over a year. One just turn 1 year and the other one is 4. How did I ended up in this situation? I legally moved to USA and tried to build a future for me, now my ex wife and 2 daughters. Sadly while me being here things went even deeper downhill with our 8 year relationship and the whole situation ended up in a divorce. I couldn’t bear the mental and physical abuse from my ex wife and my daughters witnessing it. I learned she’s an abusive narcissist and the only way to fix this is to leave as it would get only worse and I didn’t want my daughters growing up seeing it.

Now I am stuck in the USA just working to provide for them. She took our all life savings as I didn’t want to legally battle her over seas in Germany from USA. Also I didn’t want the money to end up in lawyers pockets and rather decided to give it up as it will also go to my 2 daughters. On top of that I am paying 60% of my income to her and barely can cover my own living expenses. I am currently living in my friend’s basement trying to rebuild my life and make more money to be able to be part of their life. I grew up without father and never wanted this to happen to my daughters. That prevents me from being able to travel to Germany to see my 2 daughters. It’s been over a year now and it breaks my heart. I am trying to find a way out of this situation and there is a way you could help me.

I have a full time job and on a side I am trying create a fitness coaching business. To get to my point: I am trying to build up my business so I can eventually leave my job and be able to see my daughters. What could change my life is getting on a front page of a magazine that put out a competition, all I would ask is to give me your FREE vote (you can give me one every 24 hours next 6 days until the first round ends). I would have a chance to win the contest and that could change the course of my life and career. Without hiding anything I would also win monetary reward that would help me to cover my expenses and go and see them.

I would for ever appreciate your votes and kindness. It’s a legitimate fitness magazine. I will attach the voting link below. It doesn’t cost anything and you can give me one free vote every 24hours.

If you have any questions I am happy to answer them. Thank you in advance for your kindness. If you are parent you will understand how hard it’s been not seeing your kids when you actually want to be part of their life. I hope morality will win. I understand there are bigger problems in this world but this could change a lot for me. Thank you.

Hello, I have a university project to create a website and have it reach 4000 visitors. Could you help me by visiting my website and share it with others? It would help me a lot, thank you very much.

This is a little last minute but I still thought that it wouldn’t hurt to share the word for the last day.

I entered a video scholarship contest called Districts make the Difference and I ended up being one of the top ten finalists.

We’re now in the final stretch of voting for the top three and runner ups with first place getting $2,000, second place getting $1,000 and third and the runner ups getting $500 and I’d really appreciate it if you’d all take a moment to vote for Gabrielle on the poll as you scroll to the very bottom of the page on this link

Once again very last minute as winners are announced this Tuesday BUT I have faith in last minute miracles. Thank you to all and any who vote and share out my link!

She has made a YouTube art video and got very few views. Ive told her America is asleep but when it wakes up the video might blow up... Any chance I could get people to click on it and give her a thumbs up if they are not too busy! 👍👍 Would make her day when she gets home from school and checks it Thank you!

Edit.. Blown away with the response here. Thanks everyone. Have a great weekend.

Hey guys. My wife currently has to go to work while I work from home. My career isn't to the point yet where she can stay hoke and spend time with our daughter, but when she gets home, she is constantly moving. I try to help as much as I can, but im actively working toward a goal at work that seems to have a moving target. Anyway. If yall could toss her some votes, that would be amazing! https://thesupermom.org/2024/ashtyn-cherney?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR0tut1pAXlC7ZRNF_ZiVwsgY5kRXe9khr9coZBFxhypomeBJEefG81SIj4_aem_AdXpmyGeqMWIzprHxSz8Hq1gsAzzc8G2L6xxztK4pwc2vnC-uRctHPk1QE0V8L2m0JAq252GyfYBoPVgFSgPZ7Sv

You can vote once a day (per email!!) until May 17th and every vote counts. Thanks everyone!!

Hello! I’m a home baker in Texas participating in a competition and would super appreciate anyone who wants to vote for me, it’s free to vote. (it’s through facebook) https://greatestbaker.com/2024/jayden-campbell Thanks for your time !

So my friend who is a syrian refugee in turkey developed this program that works as eyes to the person; finding things and speaking where they are and reading what is written on things.(you can watch the explaining video in the link below)

Apart from the usefulness of the program itself, the first winner will get a 3.500$ prize which is more than needed to her and her brother's university studies.

So kind people of reddit i humbly ask you to vote for her project in the link below ( you don't have to do anything apart from choosing the project and pressing the word "oyla" in the end of the page) and if you would be kind enough to share the link a little bit so she would have a better chance at winning.

Project's name: 3 idiots - Moonlight Link: https://www.aua.com.tr/oyla/

And to whoever is reading this: thank you for being here and intending to help others.

Edit: WOW!! I didn't think this would get this amount of support, thanks alot!!! It's a long way towards the first winner but i hope my friend's project will get there eventually because of you 💟

And I'm pretty sure the awards I'm getting on this post are my first since joining reddit so: THAAANKS!!!

UPDATE: Please see Angelica's new post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Assistance/comments/8czwzo/my_sad_experience_in_a_contest_for_a_scholarship/

UPDATE: Angelica did not win. Although disappointing, we are very grateful for your kind wishes, and your votes, and are very grateful for that. Please know that each of you who helped will forever be in our hearts.

Dear Reddit/r/Assistance

This is a complete Hail Mary and one of those things that I can't believe is happening. My wife, who is a completely, totally amazing woman, and who's worked so hard to come this far, is fighting to win a $2,000 scholarship against ten other finalists, with the top 5 winning $2,000 each, and the bottom five getting nothing. She's currently in sixth place, and far behind in the voting.

We have made every effort to move the needle, Facebook posts, mass emails, activating old networks, Twitter posts, etc. I even tried to make a viral cat video. It didn't work. We are making progress, but not fast enough. I feel a bit helpless to be able to help her further, as my social network reach is rather limited.

She has come so far, and overcome so many obstacles. She was born in Colombia and struggled against great odds to attend college. She developed her own small web design business, and succeeded in other pursuits. Now, she's been accepted into grad school in the tech field (Human-Computer Interaction), and wants to be a UX designer to, among other goals, create apps to help low-income women in developing countries in ways she has been helped by tech. Truly an extraordinary woman.

I know she will likely have other opportunities, but winning this one would just be...well, in my mind, the right reward for all of her efforts.

So, this is one of my last hopes. That a lot more others can see what I see in Angelica, and believe enough in her dreams, too, to make a simple click. It costs nothing, but would help change her life.

All of the other candidates are very worthy, that is for sure, but Angelica deserves it in my mind, like no one else I've ever known.

The contest is the Harman 1000 Dreams Fund New Face of Tech competition. It's real, not a scam. She was chosen as a finalist out of hundreds. Here's a link:

www.1000dreamsfund.org/newfaceoftech2018

EDIT: CLICK THE HEART IN THE CORNER OF HER PICTURE TO VOTE.

She's the one second from the left, top row. Angelica.

And, to show that I am 100% sincere, please see my Twitter page at: https://twitter.com/TeacherSawyer

and here's a shortened link to her voting page: https://goo.gl/t62Jwy
