Charity fund raiser: Give Kids The World

It's hard to ask people for money when a lot of folks are having a hard time even looking out for themselves, but I'm going to give it a shot anyway. CoasterBuzz, one of the sites I run, is teaming up with Cedar Point (a huge amusement park west of Cleveland) to raise money for Give Kids The World. As described on the CoasterBuzz event page:

Give Kids The World Village, in Orlando, Florida, is a 70-acre resort that offers children with life-threatening illness and their families an opportunity to enjoy a cost-free and worry-free experience, in as little as 24 hours if necessary. In a coordinated effort with world-class theme parks, thousands of volunteers and generous donations, Give Kids The World helps these families put illness in the background while kids get a chance to just be kids and enjoy the attractions of Central Florida.

If you have a few bucks to spare, it would be incredibly awesome if you could donate to this charity. You can donate here:

And no, I'm not eligible to win the fundraising prizes, since I run the site. :) Unfortunately, many of these kids will never see a better economy, and that's why it's critical that GKTW continues to thrive. Your donation will be greatly appreciated, no matter what the amount!
