Hey everyone sorry to take up your time but I'm looking for help from my brothers and sisters in the gaming community. This year i am participating in the Extra Life Event on November 2, 2013 where all proceeds raised go to help children diagnosed with life threatening conditions. If you could spare a few dollars, I know families everywhere will be extremely grateful. Thanks for your time, please click the link to donate, every dollar counts.

Sorry but I'll stick with donating to reputable charities. Unless you can tell me more than 90% of every dollar donated goes towards the cause.

Yeah I tried this last year but go no support. Might give it another go this time, a lot of sick kiddies out there that could use the help.

10-22-2013, 07:43 AMDobberIts Children's Miracle Network... and Extra Life... Pretty well known... Don't you think the lawyers of Children's Miracle Network would have something to say if it wasn't legit and they were plastering their name all over the place?Quote:

I know that Extra Life is legit. I've seen live broadcasts on Twitch.tv where a broadcaster was doing a marathon for the charity. And even if you can't afford to donate, don't be afraid to pass the information along social media networks. Spreading the word helps a lot.

I wonder if SE will support this on FFXIV. I know other games do it, like Rift.

Someone donated yesterday as anonymous, and if it was from here i just wanted to send out a thank you. It warms my heart to know that people playing the game i love care about helping children as I do.

Children in need are always a worthy cause.

10-22-2013, 10:20 PMDobber$50 Donation received! Im guessing by your name that is was you, and wanted to publicly thank you. Its good to see that people these days care about a good cause when stuff in the media is often so negative. Thanks again and God Bless you!Quote:

I've been doing this since it started, very good cause which raises millions. My t shirt was sent today, looking forward to donning it weekend after next. I'm glad you are getting donations! last couple of years me posting on here I got the obligatory lawl gaming for 24 hours I do that everyday.
I think it would be great if the reps started a team. -

I know I for sure could not play a video game for 24h...
Though does not matter since it is benefitting children who need help. -

There is still time to donate but I wanted to say thanks to the couple people that have so far. We are $100 from the FFXIV community now and I hope that number keeps growing. Every dollar counts, no donation is too small. Thanks again everyone and happy gaming!
