Vote for the World

Help one person make a difference with a potential global impact.

American Express asked cardholders for their ideas. Almost 1200 submitted an idea for a project that can make a positive difference in the world. They were narrowed down, and now there are five finalists. The winner gets $1,500,000 to see the project through. The remaining finalists share $1 million.

The winner, chosen by vote, will be announced Oct. 14. See the five projects and vote for your favorite to become the Member Project 2008.

Will it be early detection of Alzheiner's, providing school supplies, making loans to innovative people, or feeding children (two proposed projects are ideas to feed children)? Which will it be?

You decide.

Oh thanks for reminding me-I'd received an e-mail about this awhile back but couldn't decide! Need to make up my mind and vote.
