IMPORTANT re: Hurricane Victims...

Post by another_mother »

Hello Everyone,

I'm sure others are just as heartbroken over the suffering caused by hurricane Katrina as I am.

I spoke with Chris today, and he is willing to give us the money currently in our author accounts (even if we haven't reached $50), if we want to donate to the relief effort.

Chris/CC is also very generously donating $200.

You can either have the money sent to you, or Chris will make a lump sum donation to the Salvation Army directly, once everyone has stated what they would like to give (I asked for mine to be donated directly so the full amount can be donated instead of Paypal taking a piece).

Chris would also like to create a list to recognize those who donate.

Just post here or contact Chris if you are interested. Thank you in advance to those who give!

God Bless.

I will write to Chris and have him make a donation on my behalf to the Salvation Army.

Thanks for coming up with this terrific idea.

Chris,

My heart goes out to those people. I saw the devastation on the news today and was appaled at the conditions they are living in. I wish I could do more.

By the way, Chris. Thank you also for your donation. It was very generous of you as well.

Thanks,
Mary
