Vote now to help KFTC tell the world about the true cost of coal

Do you have a moment to help us secure funding for an important project?  KFTC is competing alongside 400 other nonprofit and social enterprise organizations for a grant to help us design and build a multimedia website designed to reveal the true costs that coal extracts on our land, our people, and our communities.  Our proposed "True Cost of Coal" website would become the culmination of KFTC's joint project with MIT to quantify the many hidden costs bound up in the life-cycle of coal from extraction to processing to burning to waste disposal, costs not necessarily reflected in the what we pay in our utility bills. 

The organization providing this grant, Free Range Studios, will select the winner of the grant from the 20 proposals with the most votes on the voting deadline, December 1st.  Please follow the directions below to help us build support for our idea.
