I got that thank you letter and I am assuming that we are close to our goal if we add the CHOC funds in

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#1185141484
ronstoppable.proboards89.com/index.cgi?board=vip&action=display&thread=1185140609&page=2#1186119875
To 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 [/size] So much for the ol' There is no such thing as a dumb question!"

Yo!
I'm tryin to keep up with the Charity Drive, but I ain't got great internet here... In fact, I'm not really sure where here is anymore. We were in Togo but are GPS got fried and no one here speaks English good, so I can't get any answer out of them either. This place is pretty harsh... not only do nthey not got A/C, but its like 110 degrees out, i can't find any ice cream, and only like half the people here have indoor plumbing. Strangely that got plenty of wi-fi hotspots, so thats pretty good.
Anyway... we gotta get back on the tail of this wanna-be villian. He's a real loser villain. Ya know, the kind that thinks like Frugal Lucre and Talks like the Mathter. Well actually he sounds sorta like Lucre. The point is we'd of got him by now if the GPS hadn't somehow ended up going over the waterall... details are sketchy.
Anyway, since my laptop made it over the rope bridge, I finally got a chance to put up the link on the main site, and I gotta thank Nabu for making it way easier by amking a picture for me to use, cause though I like to put together cool pics for the site, I'm kinda runnin on a timetable. Speakin of timetable, I better actually finish puttin up the pic before we gotta jet. Wades using super-thermal imaging to figure out where we are, and once he passes along the directions we're rollin. Which is technically not jetting. Except in a few cases.
Laters!

September 30th is the official end of the drive, and demolition of all the banners and stuff will begin just after that date.
You still have PLENTY of time to contribute, Jinxs.

I see we're still stuck on $780. Has there been less updates and there's a substantial amount in hiding? Or...*gasp!* We've become lax in our donations!?

Wednesday, or was is yesterday? (Man I need some time off of work) I sent my donation through the CHOC site using my credit card. So, I don't know if it has been counted or not.

Bless your heart for letting me know, Joe. I was going to run a test donation with $10 to see if it showed up in the right account, but I'll have Joyce be looking for yours. I do believe Morefood donated there, too. We'll see if this shows up there, and I'll let everybody know if they do and fix it if they don't.
