So I am trying to do some small bit of good in the world - aside from being here to make ya'll laugh! - and help raise some funds for MDA. The fundraiser ends tomorrow with a 20's themed lockup. I am supposed to 'raise my bail'.
...it's not going as I had thought it would. With a month of flooding my networks with posts, I have raised a whopping $40. The goal was $2400. I feel a little guilty letting them buy me lunch. They want me to "bring your rolodex" and call people from the event to bring money for my bail... The problem is, everyone I know has a tight pocketbook right now. Even me! (I really can't even sponsor myself here! Had to fix my car the other day... can you say, credit card debt?)
How does one make a difference? The addage goes that if we all do a little it helps a lot, but what if we can't even manage the little? Good intentions and all that...
I won't give up! I will continue! I can make a positive impact!
Join me?!
