Current Events and Politics decided to do a group angel tree type thing this year instead of a board secret santa. One of our regs (who I've met in person and can vouch for as not being a creepy faker or anything) works with a charity that does wishlists for kids in need who have lost a parent. We've had a couple of lurkers pipe up that they'd like to participate, so we figured we'd spread the word around.
She's posted the wishlist as a spreadsheet (24 kids, 3 wishes each), she's working on an amazon wishlist, and she's also accepting paypal donations for some of the stuff that it makes more sense for her to pick up locally or the big ticket items.
More details will be added soon and I'll update if anybody is interested.
Obviously I can relay any questions, but it probably makes more sense to ask them over on GBCN so Sushi will see them faster and can answer herself. Note - she's in HI, so she's not typically online until later in the day with that whole timezone thing.
