YINZ Y'ALL YOU GUYS YOUZ!
Look at the total over there ------>
Mmmmhmmmm. You did that. All of you. We are totally going to hit our $10k goal and it's all because yinz and y'all and everybody are the best. So, thank you. Thanks for making this thing work every year, even if I can't explain it or understand it. I'll just roll with the wave of holiday joy that will be delivered to Center for Victims next Friday.
Which, that's that date. Friday, December 10 is the date when everything is getting delivered. Given that Amazon deliveries have been wonky this year, we're running into the deadline for getting in on the fun. So, whether you have $5 to spare or can go big, now is the time to click on the wishlist and send a little joy into the universe. It all adds up to a super big pile and every little thing matters.
The kids who receive services from Center for Victims matter.
In 2019/2020, there were 2000 of them. 2000 kids who received counseling services, legal advocacy, shelter ... all of the good work that Center for Victims does for people who see the worst that humanity has to offer. Don't think too hard about that data point unless you are mentally prepared for a giant moment of sadness, but this thing we're doing? It will directly help many of those kids.
Last call, team. Let's get this done.
(If you'd like to focus on a particular group of kids, let it be kids under about 8, especially babies. For the first time in Christmas Crazy history, we leaned towards older kids in our early rounds of mischief, so those littler ones still have some gaps.)
