We have been using our old van to travel across the country delivering Animal Rescue Supplies in support of the Gulf Oil Spill and to deliver our environmental education programs to schools and churches across the country.

Each day, beginning May 14, 2012, 100 Cars for Good will profile five finalists at www.100carsforgood.com. The public (you!) will be able to vote for whichever non-profits you think is most deserving via a Facebook vote. The nonprofit with the most votes at the end of each day will win a new Toyota!

OMG will be up for consideration on Thursday, June 28th from 10 am to 11:59 pm. (See instructions below)

This means this is your chance to help OMG win a brand new Toyota van. All it takes is one click to vote for OMG to win. We have just one day for people to vote for us – so please, cast your vote for OMG at www.100carsforgood.com between 10:00 am – 11:59 pm.

If you follow OMG on Facebook – you already know how passionate our two young founders are about wanting to save endangered species. After helping out during the Gulf oil spill, they learned all about plastic pollution and have been working tirelessly ever since in an effort to help raise awareness to the issue and how it effects so many animals.

Each year an estimated 1-million sea birds and over 100,000 marine mammals die from ingesting plastic. There is currently so much plastic trash in our oceans that we will virtually never be able to remove it. Plastic trash affects every living species in our oceans and waterways and ultimately humans as well.

Single-use plastic bags floating in our oceans are often mistaken as jellyfish by birds and sea turtles which ingest them as they search for food.  Once in their system, the plastic bags block their digestive system and they virtually starve to death.  Many cities and even entire countries have banned the use of single-use plastic bags in an effort to help save these animals.  At OMG, we too want to make a difference and we believe that using our educational programs are the best way to make a difference.

A new, reliable Toyota van would really be game changer for us – enabling our founders to bring their environmental education programs across the country in an effort to help save the many animals who are affected each day.

We are up against some national organizations and we’ll need to rally-up the entire OMG community to win this van so we can continue to make a difference.
