Jacob doesn't know me. We are from the same area and I have seen him lead worship songs in his church. I know a close friend of his and that is how I am connected. From what I see, Jacob is an amazing young person chasing his dreams and boy can he sing!
He is an employee at out local McDonald's. He is one of 22 finalists in the Voice of McDonald's competition. You have the chance to decide who will represent U.S. at the McDonald’s Worldwide Convention in Orlando. How about a vote for Jacob!
Voting will run from November 1 to November 30, and is open to everyone.
Here is a little about Jacob from his biography posted on the voting page:

I am so inspired by this young man for his accomplishments. He is from a VERY small town, works at the ONLY fast food burger place in town and is one of 22 finalist in a NATIONWIDE contest.
