Gift for the Children’s Wish Foundation

On January 3rd I put up a post, Inspired by gifter.org, announcing a charity drive. To recap, I announced that I would donate CDN$1 of personal funds for each non-nasty/non-spam comment left of any post on my site during the month of January 2007 to the Children’s Wish Foundation.

Last night, I received an incredibly generous offer from Byran Person to donation match up to CDN$25 for the month’s totals.

The official tally for the charity drive, including the donation match, is… CDN$55.

Congratulations and thank you to everyone who participated: Dave Brodbeck, Charles Cadenhead, CC Chapman, James Clendenan, Daryl Cognito, Don Edwards, Dan Johnson, Bruce Murray, Maurizio Ortolani, Bryan Person, Andrea Ross, Julien Smith, Vivian Vasquez, Jay West, James Whittingham and Little Willow.

    Very cool! Good job Mark. You should have made the idea a blog tag game to make, I mean encourage, other bloggers to join in and do something similar.
