Dear Editor,

I'm a student at Milpitas High. I would really appreciate it if you could help me because I can't afford my tuition fee for the college I want to attend. There's absolutely no money or donations involved, just a few minutes of your time. I am the only student from Milpitas chosen to be one of 200 people to compete for a $20,000 scholarship and I need to get the most votes in order to win. It's a six-week voting process that resets every week. To win, I need to get more votes than the person I'm competing with every week.

Go here to vote: www.zinch.com/north. Just click my name, Sylvia Liu, at the bottom and then click the "Vote Me!" button right under my profile on the left.
