    What a great idea....

    I have seen an ad on tv for the Fred Hollows foundation and have been meaning to donate... I just did... and what a feeling it was knowing that I have just paid for one person in a 3rd world country to restore their eye sight..

    Here is the link...

    http://www.hollows.org.au/

    For $25, you can give someone the gift of sight too...

    Thanks for the chance...

    Nice giveaway...

    Whatever works to get people to donate to a worthy cause is always a good thing...

    Usually donate to several organizations, but made one to Purple Stride Orlando for Pancreatic Cancer:

    The race was completed last month, but they are always accepting donations...

    I really really REALLY love this poster.... I want to win it!

    I made 20 donations to give myself the chance to win...

    I will list them all and gladly be vetted over them.

    If I win I will also donate another 100$ to a organization.

    I have never felt so great in my life.... It took me nearly 3 hours to compile and then put this into action.
    I never thought I would find so many organizations that deem 5$ unworthy of being donated??? I mean really Michael J Fox Foundation???

    5$ is better then 0$ every day of the week.

    Here is my list, thank you for the chance and I hope I win. If I don't, well, I did win... Cause I helped out a bunch of great causes.

    1. Salvation Army
    2. Humane Society of Hamilton County
    3. American Cancer Society
    4.Humane Society of Indianapolis
    5. Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation
    6. ANNA FUND annafund.org
    7. UNICEF
    8. Society for Science & the Public
    9. Teach for America
    10. Children's Organ Transplant Association
    11. Make-A-Wish Foundation of America
    12. Riley Children's Foundation
    13. Carnegie Institution for Science
    14. The Children's Aid Society
    15. PAWS Chicago
    16. CDC Foundation
    17. Indiana State Museum Fund
    18. Habitat For Humanity
    19. YMCA of Greater Indianapolis
    20. Kids Alive International

    Like I said, if I don't win it was so so worth it!

    Thank you OP, you made my weekend.

    Thanks Sheila! We are in need of Troop items as we just shipped over 3000 pounds of goodies in the past 2 weeks. This will be most helpful and is much appreciated. Thank you Sheila!

    3days, I just donated to http://www.wishuponahero.com/. They partnered with The Yellow Ribbon Club today to bring home a soldier from Iraq in rock star fashion and then threw him a party as well.

    Awesome idea man!

    Made a few donations this holiday season to causes that are near and dear to my heart, one to The American Cancer Society, and the other to the local chapter of The Arc, which helps helps children and adults with developmental and intellectual disibilities.

    Thanks again man!

    Donated $5 to www.childsplaycharity.org but I do not want to be entered into the contest. I'm lucky enough to already own this print but this thread was just too awesome not to participate in.

    Again, kudos and thank you 3days.
