From our front-page news:
I don't dedicate much of our news space to contests or promotions outside of our website, but a recent fundraiser posted by our friends at TheTechLounge is too good to look over. They've teamed up with a countless amount of sponsors in order both raise funds for the Toys for Tots program, as well as to give you a good chance at winning a great prize.
The Toys for Tots program is one that helps deliver joy to children less-fortunate, which is important during a time of year where it's easy to take things for granted. Although toys aren't everything, as a child, it's the simple things that can make a huge difference, which is why charities like this exist.
To help raise funds, tickets are being raffled off, and for every $5 donated, you receive one entry into the virtual hat for a chance at one of over eighty prizes. The event ends at the end of the month, and the site needs your help in order to hit or at least come close to their $25,000 target, with every cent earned going straight to the charity. I've known Kurtis and Brian for a while (and also the amount of effort put in here), so even if you have just five bucks to put somewhere, why not put it towards a great cause?
The objectives of Toys for Tots are to help needy children throughout the United States experience the joy of Christmas; to play an active role in the development of one of our nation's most valuable natural resources - our children; to unite all members of local communities in a common cause for three months each year during the annual toy collection and distribution campaign; and to contribute to better communities in the future.
