Animals more important than children in Guatemala?

Hi, as most of you know , there are three Guatemalan charities trying hard to win a place in the Chase Community Giving competition.
All three of these charities work hard to help the children in Guatemala with education, food and medical care. Services that the children here badly need.
So it disheartening to see that people are voting more for pitbull rescue than for feeding malnourished children.
I am a big animal lover...we have an animal program as part of Mayan Families but how is that so many animal organizations are doing so much better, getting so many more votes than the children of Guatemala ?
All three of our charities have been appealing to everyone we know or who will spread the word.
Please help us ....we hate to keep bugging you...but we really need your help to keep these three charities in the running to get $25,000 US which will make such a difference to how we can help the children. 
We are not competing against each other. We are working together. All three of these charities can win the $25,000 US.
If you have already voted, please spread the word, please take a lap top to work, ask your friends to vote, take a laptop to church or a social gathering. It only takes a few minutes and will have long lasting benefits for the children here in Guatemala.
Here are the directions that Melissa Draper was kind enough to do.
Free, Easy and it Takes Less Than a Minute!
