    Bump!! I'm surprised there's only 3 pages worth of comments/donations so far. You just need to donate $10 bucks to a charity of your choice & you're in a draw for one of these babies!

    Wow, what an awesome thing to do :clap: :thumbup: I'm so in, I just need to find out whom to donate to.

    Thanks for the chance, you rock!



    Edit: I just read the first page again, and it says one donation per post. I posted twice in here, but donated once. So please count my two posts as one, if that's okay :)

    I plan on donating to my local Boys and Girls Club, The Boys and Girls Club of Suffolk County. I'll probably donate more than once. I'll keep you posted.


    P.S. I haven't listened to Benny in a while, wasn't it a benefit show for something similar to BGC?

    I donated to the American Cancer Society because my Grandma is going through chemo and radiation treatment right now. She is the best and hopefully one day no one else will have to go through all of this sh*t once there is a cure.
