Hey guys. (Bic said it was okay for me to post this)

Myself, and 4 others are going to be staying awake for 48 hours straight. The reason why were doing this is to help raise money and awareness for a charity called ChildsPlay. (http://www.childsplaycharity.com). (This is starting tuesday at midnight and going to thursday at midnight)

ChildsPlay donates money and games to various childrens hospitals world wide around this time in the season. I was in and out of hospitals when I was a kid, and I know what its like to lose some of your child hood. (I want kids whether theyre sick or not, have a childhood full of fun and laughter.)

We're going to be setting up a 48 hour long live stream of this on ustream. (Possibly stickam also).

Once this is all set up, there will be a donation link (connected right to ChildsPlay's paypal.) and a text-to-donate number that people can text to donate some money. (There will be a ChipIN widget too. ChipIN allows me to track how much money we have raised for the charity.)

I'd really appreciate it, if you guys could donate just a small ammount of money to the charity. Doesn't have to be a lot. Even $1 makes a difference. Some of these kids don't even get a christmas, emotionally and physically.


Questions, comments, etc?


Feel free to ask.

-Josh

Hey guys.

18 Hours left.
4 Guys
1 big huge appreciation.

I just wanna say, even though this hasnt ended yet; thank you everyone for donating. I know some of you couldn't and thats perfectly fine. I know a few of you donated, and it means the world to me and these children.

You guys totally rock. Were at around $165 CAD. (Not counting loose change, and paypal'd stuff)

Keep it coming!!!

:)


Also bic, Thanks a lot for letting me post this man.
