Lol, I wonder if someone will look up rs.net? It'll probably lead them here: www.rs.net/ ;D They'll find us if they google 'rs.net Kim Possible', though. Oh, I was just fiddling around with the inscription, and made use of all the characters available at the Pave the Way section of the CHOC website [http://www.chocshop.org/pavetheway.cfm]: TO KIM POSSIBLE, FROM ALL OF HER FANS AT RS.NET I was even able to fit in Ron's full name: TO RON STOPPABLE, FROM ALL OF HIS FANS AT RS.NET Dunno if that's an improvement or not, but I like the sound of it

Wow, 650$ already?! That's huge! Did you guys decide what to print on the brick already? On the first brick which we ALREADY have paid for, thanks to all of you guys, will be: Kim PossibleFrom all of her fans at RS.NETThe next one that we're already well on the way to paying for through our donations will be: Ron StoppableFrom all of his fans at RS.NETTHEN... We could do one for Drakken... And one for Shego. Who knows? The SKY is the limit! Would we want a brick to thank the creators of KP? and their team for being a part of the show. Just had a bad thought. Is there any chance that the big D' could stop us from putting the RP and RS name on the brick(s)? I know this is for a very good cause, but we know how that corporation and their attorneys are. I am planning to put some money in as well. I forgot, through the paypal process will there be a record for tax purposes? Thanks to everyone especially to RD for all the time he has put into this and for not giving up for one minute. Thanks RD!

It's great to see the charity drive kick back into high gear after all of the tribulations with legalities and whatnot. We've already got KP's brick in the bag, now it's time for Ron's, and we just started! Hopefully a lot more members will help out as time goes on.
And Fusion's donation... had to read it over a couple times to make sure I read it right. Unbelievable!
If I wasn't so strapped for cash at the moment with college and the need for a new car in the near future, my donation would've been quite a bit higher than what it actually was. This time around, because of these new expenses, I wasn't even able to match my previous donation from before we were prematurely shut down, which I'm very apologetic for. However, I may be able to get more into the fund late next month.

Can we use the banners on othet sites? The pink ones? It may bring more $ in for the hospital, and attract more KP fans!

No, we can't.
This, unfortunately, is for members of this message board only.
Due to legalities, we can't solicit donations from the public, only from members of THIS Kimmunity.
Sorry, and thanks for asking that, Mangafangirl.

Yay for your dad!

I'm glad paypal allows around the world money sending, I've been using it a lot recently Yes that's great but PayPal doesn't accept my credit card, though I really want to donate.

I sent a donation before I was a real member of RS.net, how can I send my friends on FF.Net here?

Thanks for your contribution, bthecat! And welcome to the board! RD could probably answer your question regarding your friends, but so far as I know - it's 'in house' only, unless your friends join this board. Of course, I doubt we could stop you if you decided to donate through the CHOC link.

$749.48! yep ;D getting up there. now.. that is only what is in the paypal. RD is going to contact the hospital to inquire as to how much has been donated directly to the hospital, we could easily have several hundred more dollars donated that we do not yet know about

Our distinguished member Joe Stoppinghem has made an inquiry about donating to the drive and receiving a tax-deductible receipt from them. Could one of you guys post the info on how to do that for him and all of the folks that might want to do that? Or... wait a sec, it might be posted already in the Q&A section... ronstoppable.proboards89.com/index.cgi?board=vip&action=display&thread=1185140609&page=1#1185141484ronstoppable.proboards89.com/index.cgi?board=vip&action=display&thread=1185140609&page=2#1186119875To make a donation directly to the hospital without digging around for the address to do so... Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) 455 S. Main St. Orange, CA 92868-3874 Phone# (714) 997-3000 Make checks/money orders payable to: Childrens' Hospital of Orange County And MAKE SURE to include in a note or a letter that this donation is for the Fund4KP to put down bricks in the path to health. Otherwise, the $$$ will just go into the general fund, and not apply to our account. It would also be VERY helpful to put Fund4KP in the memo line of a check or money order, too. If you would like, you can make your letter or note to Attention: Joyce Van Tol, the director and our contact at the hospital for our charity drive. Joe, I hope this helps answer your question about taxes. Everybody else, too! Edit: I forgot to mention that if you guys choose to donate directly to CHOC, you get a neat-o thank you letter from them, too!RD
