ASPCA Rachael Ray $100K Challenge Photo Contest

Monday, November 5, 2012 - 5:00pm

Voting has now closed!

This summer we put out a call for submissions for photos that best represented the soul of the $100K Challenge, our national shelter competition to save more animals’ lives. Anyone who adopted, fostered, volunteered, or reclaimed an animal at a participating shelter during the months of August, September, or October 2012 was eligible to enter, and we received some amazing submissions!

It was tough, but we narrowed down the entries to 40 finalists, eight in each Challenge division, and now it’s your turn to choose the winners. The photo with the most votes in each region will win a $2,000 grant for its shelter. You can vote once per day in each region, but get clicking—the deadline to vote is November 14 at 11:59 P.M. EST.

And be sure to stay tuned to our blog, where we’ll announce the winners on November 15!
