OK, Georgia is accounted for! Sorry, It slipped my mind also. I so
appreciate this website - I've received a lot of good advice over the past
three years. Let's make sure Jim comes in first!

Hi Deborah
Thanks for the reminder. It's one of those things that i meant to look
into, but of course, forgot. This is a challenge to others on the list.
We tell Jim all the tim how much his time and effort mean to us, let's put
some money behind our woords. After all, the cause is TM. Isn't that why
we're on this website. How about a donation or two from every state ad
country? Is anyone else up tp the challenge?
It was easy, I just went through the site listed in Deborah's memo.
Michigan just donated!

Hi Everybody,
I am writing to say that I am just slightly disappointed at the lack of
response to Jim's request to participate in this fundraiser. Out of the
100-plus people that are signed up with this list, only about 5-6 have
responded. Jim has slipped into second place in the contest.
For all that Jim has done for us, is it too much to ask for you to help
out by just donating as little as $10.00? It is because of Jim that we
have this list to participate in, sharing all of our TM experiences and
making world-wide friendships. Jim is a very humble man and one of my
best friends. He does not ask for much. It is a lot of work for him to
keep updating our website and search for ways to earn money for a cure
and for newer, better treatments for transverse myelitis. Jim is very
devoted to this, and he never asks for anything in return.
Can't we all just help this one time? If I have guilted even one or two
of you into making a donation, then I feel that I have succeeded, but Jim
needs 8 donations to gain first place again. And remember that Yahoo
will match whatever amount that the first place winner achieves, thus
doubling the donation!
Please, let's all do this, if not for our own progress in looking for
better treatments for TM, then just for Jim. Here is the link again, in
case you have lost it: Transverse Myelitis Association Donate:
https://www.networkforgood.org/donate/MakeDonation2.aspx?ORGID2=911780467&PcaItemId=135
Take care,
Debbie

Hey everyone, my charity badge is currently #1 with only 7 donations!
http://promotions.yahoo.com/giving/topten.php
Even if you can only donate $10 (the minimum amount) it will add up. If
my charity badge receives the greatest number of donations from unique,
individual donors, regardless of the amount, Yahoo will match the total
amount donated! If you are able to give more remember the donation is
tax-deductible.
To designate your donation for a specific fund or purpose, please enter
a description of how you'd like your donation to be used in the provided
box on the form.
Thank you
Jim

Now is a great time to give to the Transverse Myelitis Association.
I became a ventilator dependent quadriplegic, paralyzed from the neck
down, due to Transverse Myelitis, a rare neurological disorder that
affects the central nervous system. I am trying to help raise funds for
education and research.
To support your efforts even further, between now and December 31,
2006, Yahoo! will track how many unique, individual donors contribute to
the charity featured in each charity badge. Yahoo! will give a matching
gift of up to $50,000 to the charity promoted by the top-performing
Charity Badge (that is, the badge that receives the greatest number of
donations from unique, individual donors, regardless of the amount).
You must use this link to make your donation through this Charity
