Nominate the Lupus Foundation of America for “Best Non-Profit Use of Social Media” in Mashable's 2009 Open Web Awards

Mashable, in partnership with MOTOBLUR, is conducting the 3rd Annual Open Web Awards: Social Media Edition. The 2009 Open Web Awards is Mashable’s international online voting competition that covers major innovations in web technology and social media.

The Lupus Foundation of America (LFA) is participating, and would like to take the category of “Best Non-Profit Use of Social Media.” We need you and your friends and family to help us win!

How You Can Help

Once a day, every day between now and November 15, you and your family, friends, and coworkers can nominate the Lupus Foundation of America for “Best Non-Profit Use of Social Media.”

Submitting your nomination requires 4 easy steps:

Step 1: Visit http://openwebawards.com/
Step 2: Log in via Facebook or Twitter (if you have an account in both, please vote via both websites)
Step 3: Go to the first category (Brand / Startup / Company / Agency), and select “Best Non-Profit Use of Social Media” from the drop-down menu.
Step 4: Type in "Lupus Foundation of America" and Submit Your Nomination

Remember, you can vote once a day, every day, using both your Facebook and Twitter accounts.

The nominations period will last until midnight of November 15th.

The top 5 nominees in each category will then move on to the final voting round which will begin on November 18th and end on December 13th. Winners will be announced on December 15th.

Thank you for your support.
