THANK YOU EVERYONE, FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

First I want to thank everyone who purchased my scrap kit that is to be donated to charity, to save the tassie devils, everyone who donated what they could, posted about it somewhere else to help spread the word, or even just told a friend about it...you all have my son's and my thank's!

This fundraiser, in my opinion, was a huge success! All totalled, my son raised $193.42 USD, which will convert to over $300 AUD!!! WOW!

His donation will be made tomorrow morning, and I will announce the winners of the prizes mentioned at that time too 8o)

Thanks again everyone!

Fundraising UPDATE!!!

Updating once again:
My son is up to $102.03 US, which converts to about $159.92 roughly, give or take the exchange rate hehe.

Even better, on Thursday night, we received an email from Tasmanian of the Year 2008, Bruce Englefield, chairman of the "Devil Island Project", who works with the Tassie government to build the enclosures that quarantine the disease free devils, to keep them safe and healthy! He explained to us that while the funds donated to the research will help eventually, that if we were to donate some of the funds to their cause, that there would be more visible, tangible results, and that his name would appear at one of their sites as a sponsor.

I never dreamed that when my son came home that day a few weeks ago, and started telling me what he wanted to do ... well, I didn't realize that he would get so much attention from all over the world! LOL

Thank you again to everyone for your support! Watch for more goodies to come soon!
