San Diego, CA (I-Newswire) November 11, 2011 - Cause Layouts™, the first and only free marketing layouts that provide charities with Cause-Based Social Media Fundraising™ tools on Facebook®, is pleased to announce Kollette Alvord of Las Vegas as the winner of its October ‘Choose Your Cause’ contest. Alvord, who voted to support Tucson-based charity Petifinder.com Foundation, will receive a $1,000 pre-paid Visa gift card, courtesy of Cause Layouts.

"As an animal lover, Petfinder.com is a foundation close to my heart,” said Alvord, the ‘Choose Your Cause’ contest winner. “Petfinder.com is dedicated to rescuing and finding homes for thousands of homeless pets across the nation. Shelters in this country are filled to capacity and pets are being abandoned. We need an organization like Petfinder.com to help save the animals!"

To enter the ‘Choose Your Cause’ contest, fans simply chose their favorite charity from the selection of Facebook layouts designed by Cause Layouts. Once entered, fans had the option to download the Cause Layout of their choice for free. For every original download, Cause Layouts donated $1 to the selected charity. The contest drew in more than 4,000 entries and resulted in thousands of dollars donated to the participating charities through Cause Layouts downloads.

“The ‘Choose Your Cause’ contest allowed supporters to give back to their favorite causes in a fun, free and engaging way,” said Monish Ahuja, president, Cause Layouts. “Currently, more than 15 million individuals have the Cause Layouts technology. This empowers charities and nonprofits to reach an entirely new level of viral awareness and exposure that has not been previously available.”
