Let’s help these kids! (Updated)
Tuesday, Dec 3, 2024 - Posted by Rich Miller * Today is Giving Tuesday, which is our traditional kick-off day for our annual charity fundraiser. Every year, we pitch in to help Lutheran Social Services of Illinois buy Christmas presents for foster kids. LSSI spends about $25 on each gift and none of what we raise goes to the group’s overhead costs. It’s all about the kids and even a small donation can go a long way. None of these children are living great lives right now. They don’t come from functional families. So, what we try to do here is help brighten their lives one day a year with a gift. It can make a big difference for these kids. So, please, click here to donate. As I told you earlier this year, some friends and I attended an LSSI event and we all made donations. But I will still keep up my end of our tradition and match the first $2,000 contributed by you. * Again, please click here and give whatever you can. Thanks! …Adding… We already reached the first $2,000+, so I kicked in my pledged $2K. Please click here and give whatever you can. Thanks!!!

throwing in an extra $25 as penance for my dumb question on earlier blog that could’ve been answered by closer reading

If I had to donate $25 each time I was dumb, I’d go broke.
Happy to help all the same.

@OneMan,
Me,too. But I’ll kick in, anyway.
