VOTA is the second self-titled album (though the first by this name) by the Christian rock band VOTA, formerly known as Casting Pearls. The album was released as a digital download on November 11, 2008, and released as a physical CD on February 10, 2009. The band is able to give $40.00 USD to Food for the Hungry through a matching grant with US AID for every album sold from their online store and merchandise table on tour.[4][5] Since the digital release of the album in November, the band has helped raise over $200,000 for the Food for the Hungry project in Kenya (as of July 2009).
