Vote now for Maui Humane Society's Pet & Firefighter calendar contest: "Rescue Me" - Maui Humane Society

This one is different: a charity calendar fundraiser run by Maui Humane Society itself, hosted on the organizer's own website, where supporters pay one dollar per vote for photos of island pets paired with Maui firefighters and lifeguards. The twelve photos with the most votes become the months of the printed calendar. The most recent voting round closed on September 7 at 11:59 p.m. HST.
