Final Donation of $656.82 to the Starfish Foster Home

Tonight is bittersweet. I'm very pleased to send off $556.82 to the Starfish Foster Home in China, and we had blogover recipient send a $100 donation directly to them, totaling $656.82 raised this past month by our volunteer designers. It's kind of sad for me to give this up as live moves on, but I think we can be very proud of what's we've accomplished this past year. In July, August, and September we raised a total of $1890.87 for the Starfish Foster Home. That makes a total of $6189.86 raised, plus several hundred dollars that we don't have accounted for that were sent to cover mailing costs in the fall of 2007 to send Christmas presents to children with the Chung Yi orphanage in Taiwan.

I'd like to thank my good friend Rebecca for starting up and expanding this with me. I'd like to thank Melissa for joining our ranks and teaching us so much... and making me want to learn how to make cool animated graphic like she can! Thank you to Danielle for your beautiful work. And a BIG thank you to Judi for stepping up, completing many volunteer designs, and creating a gallery so you can continue to view the charity designs created over the past year. You're an amazing bunch of women bursting with talent. Thank you once again for sharing your talents for these children.
