Soldiers' Angels - Please read
Hi. This Saturday, I'll be participating in the annual Blogathon. It's a 24 hour posting marathon to raise money for charity. Every half-hour, I'll make a post on my blog from 8 am Saturday to 8 am Sunday (central time).
I'm blogging for Soldiers' Angels. They are a non-profit charity which sends care packages - phones, phone cards, foods, letters, etc - to soldiers serving overseas.
They are not affiliated with any political organization or party ... it's not political at all, it's all about the soldiers.
If you're willing, please visit this link. There, you can pledge to sponsor me. You can pledge to donate either a per-hour amount, or a flat amount for the day.
After the blogathon ... Usually a few days to a week afterwards .. you'll get an email with instructions on how to fulfill your pledge, either online or through the mail. Sponsors will send their donation directly to the charity. I won't see any of it, and neither will the folks at the blogathon. Not one penny.
If you do pledge, you have a month after the end of the blogathon to fulfill your pledge, so if you're on a budget or expecting a paycheck later on, this might be something to consider ... no money up-front.
And on top of that, I'd encourage you to visit my blog during that day. I'll be having trivia contests, giveaways, and more ... including items donated by Star Trek crewmembers, B5 keychains, autographs (including William Shatner, Kate Mulgrew, and more), and more.
I'll also be doing raffles ... For every dollar you pledge, your name goes into a hat once, and I'll draw for prizes.
You can help the soldiers, and help yourself at the same time. Everybody wins!
