LLS Fundraiser Raffle

Hey everybody,

Once again, I am coordinating a fundraiser for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society at my school. After the tremendous support the members here have shown the past couple years, my contacts at LLS have actually asked if I was working with my cigar friends again this year to raise money. The contributions you guys have made in the past has really stood out and are greatly appreciated! So once again, I will do a raffle for the people that contribute through the link at the top of this post.

Very simply, you will get one entry into the raffle for every $5 donated. Please include your ccom screen name in the comments when you donate. The fundraiser doesn't technically start until next week, but I figured I would get it started since my online donation page is all set up. This fundraiser runs until March 11th, so I'll probably do the drawing on 3/12. I haven't dug around the cooler yet, but the prize will include some high end cigars, maybe some beer or booze, we'll see. I'll definitely try to make it decent.

Thanks in advance for the support, fellas! Although I don't actually get anything out of this, I really appreciate all the support for a great charity.

    Thanks. I hate filling out forms if I don't have to, especially if they contain personal information. What's your paypal addy? Use your name for the donation buddy.

    @matkn293 and @Stubble, got your donations posted. 

    This is closed next Friday, so there is still one more week to get in. One entry in the raffle for every $5 donated. I found some KBS in the closet that will find its way into the box assuming the winner likes beer. Gotta send something to drink with the cigars  :p
