DVC Charity Drive - $861 raised!

Closing in on The DV Challenge Holiday Charity Challenge!

With just under 10 days to go before the start of the DV Challenge charity event, it's time to start raising the donation fund.

To donate to the charity pool, simply decide how much you'd like to kick in, and Paypal it to me at softserveinc@hotmail.com

I'll be keeping a running track of the donations, as well as listing those who helped build the charity fund right here.

When the winner of DVC11 is chosen, he or she will get to donate the entire charity pool, in their name, to the charity of their choice. What a great holiday gift to be able to give!

Not only that, the winner of DVC11 also gets a holiday shopping spree at www.dvestore.com courtesy of Guy Cochran and dvestore.com!

If when sending a charity donation, you could give me a quick email at the same time, it would be much appreciated!

DVC4 raised $525 thanks to these kind people:

And DVC7 raise $700!

Let's see what we can do this year!

I'll start off by kicking in the balance of my Paypal account!

Don't wait, do it now

You know you want to.

All the cool kids are doing it.

And then if you don't actually finish your movie you can still feel like a winner.

Smile,
Kris

Oh, and yes, I just sent mine in.
