Last chance--2007 Birthday Project closes today!

Unread post by part-time poet » Sun Jul 01, 2007 6:47 pm

It's July 1st (how time flies!) and so we will be officially closing our charity campaign for Great Ormond Street Hospital at midnight tonight (probably midnight Pacific time . . . I stay up late).

Many thanks to all the wonderful people who have donated to this project. We have raised more than $4,800 in June, making this the most successful Zone Birthday Project ever!

:thanks!: so much to all of you. Your kindness is inspiring.

:happybday: to Johnny Depp!

I think that Mr. Depp will be very pleased to know that his Zoner fans love him so much. It was a great cause and a nice way to honor him. Thanks ladies for thinking of such a great birthday present for him.

If it is possible. PtP... I hope you will post the response from the hospital when they receive the donation. I am sure they will send a thank you note or something.

Thank in advance...Kitty

PS... thanks again to you for allowing us a truly sincere and tangible way to thank the man who has given us so much ... I know every zoner can take pride in the terrific response to the birthday project.

Love to you all !!!
