Many of you have suggested that we write to Ellen DeGeneres to ask for her help with Epic Change, and I think it’s a swell idea. So we made this special, limited edition video blog entry just for Ellen. I promise this will be the only video you’ll see today (and, if we’re lucky, ever) that features me singing Barbra Streisand and Sanjay in pigtails, and includes the words “pie,” “Tanzania” and “rad” - don’t miss this awesome opportunity to mock us openly by clicking on our YouTube video below.

Feel free to give us a few extra hits by clicking “refresh” a couple times too. Once you’ve had the opportunity to regain your composure, I hope you’ll take a couple minutes and help us out with these 5 easy steps to help us get the word to Ellen:

1. Pass this email on to EVERYONE in your address book. Even if you’ve already forwarded our other emails, trust us, they’ll want to see this. :)

5. If you haven’t yet given, click here to contribute just $10 yourself.

I know you may have to sign up for YouTube and Digg accounts to help us out, which may take you 5 minutes, but it’s totally FREE, and definitely worth it as it really helps spread the word across the Internet. Of course, if you have any other imaginative ways to get the word to Ellen, please take creative license and run with it. America’s Giving Challenge ends at 3PM on January 31st, so we need to find as many new donors as possible before then.

With your help, I just know we can win.

Pass it on.
