I work for the David Lynch Foundation and my job is awesome.
Along with filmmaker David Lynch and a team of passionate peace-seekers, my goal is to spread the powerful gift of Transcendental Meditation (TM) to at-risk kids, veterans with PTSD, homeless men in re-entry programs, Native Americans with diabetes, kids and adults who are incarcerated, and anyone else truly in need. The results of TM never fail to blow my mind. I mean, it actually works. Prisoners stop being re-arrested (Seriously. Recidivism rate went down 50% in a prison where the inmates practice TM.). Students stop acting up in class, stop being affected by ADD, violence in the halls becomes non-existent (Wanna hear more? Check out davidlynchfoundation.org).
We've always got projects in the works -- documentaries, concerts, interviews... See what we're up to at http://dlf.tv/
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME:
Imagine what the world would be like if everyone was just a little bit happier, able to think before they act, carrying around a little less stress, a little less anger. That's what I'm saying.
David Lynch experienced the effects first-hand, and now his foundation is providing those who need it most with the most powerful gift ever - knowing yourself and being happy.
Now check out Russell Brand's page. He's the one I really think you should vote for. He's supported the David Lynch Foundation so amazingly, and his is a true TM success story.

Happy February, Crowdrise friend! Thank you for your support, through your donations, votes, advocacy and friendliness. You probably know all about the amazing promos that CR runs. Right now, I think the most awesome is the chance to win an iPad 2. Every time you donate $26, you are entered to win.
Your $26 donation to a Reader to Reader project would help us send 2 boxes full of books to an under-resourced library here in the states, or support special education in the DR, or get a women's school built in Nigeria, or get books to families in transition... there are plenty of choices and who knows, you might get lucky!
Happy reading,
Kat
