YAHOO!  Great Job everyone!

Thank you Michael and Jamie for setting this up!  It makes me feel that in some small way I have helped these victims.

The donations have slowed now so I think its time to go ahead and send off our contributions - if you still want to donate, hurry up! The pets of the Hurricane Disaster need it and we don't want to hesitate. I will donate via PayPal to our choice later today September 11 at 5:00 pm PST. Most of our members have expressed their confidence in Noah's Wish and I don't think we'll need a vote, however, if there are any objections let us all know soon and we'll consider a vote.

Thank you all! I think we've done an outstanding job rallying support and contributions!

I just wanted to repeat in case anyone didn't get it the first time, Johnson & Johnson will match your donation and double it.  So, if you donate $100, they will make it $300.  It is a good way to get more money to whatever cause you want to help.  That might be a good way to send the BPO Katrina Donations.  So we could be donating almost $4000 dollars if we do this.  I know you said you were doing it yesterday, but if you haven't yet, please consider this.  Jaime, don't hesitate to call me or email me.

Wow, everyone! I am truly overwhelmed by this generosity. Having just come back from helping Noah's Wish in Slidell, LA, I can tell you the funds will be very appreciated and desperately needed.

Hey Ryen, we sent it off yesterday. After some thought, I decided to donate directly to the group on behalf of the members of BPO - for three reasons. 1, to keep a higher level of transparency with everyones contributions, 2, to get it there fast and 3, to give a personal and direct donation as a group, so that the charity could know where it was coming from, the members of BPO. I hope I didn't make a mistake  :-X
