C'mon Now. Do Your Part

As was mentioned yesterday, EDSBS is hosting a charity contest to raise money for victims of the tornadoes in Georgia and Oklahoma, and the cyclone in Burma. Yesterday, an earthquake rocked China, as well, so the need to assist relief agencies is as strong as ever.
And if the soft spot in your heart isn't moved to action, maybe the burnt orange spot in your heart will be: The current charity standings show the Oklahoma Sooners ahead of the Texas Longhorns. Today is the last day of EDSBS' donation drive.
Even if your budget has room only for a $10 donation, make it happen. I just gave to the American Red Cross, but you can give to any of the three agencies the drive is aiming to support. Details on how to donate are here.
[Note by billyzane, 05/13/08 5:24 PM EDT ] As of late this afternoon, Texas has skyrocketed to 4th place, but we're still a long ways out of third. Keep the donations coming.
[Note by PB @ BON, 05/13/08 6:25 PM EDT ] Billyzane beat me to it, but it's worth mention again: We've got the big Mo! Give-give-give-give! You can write it off your taxes and help people! And shame the rest of the Big 12 with our generawesomeness. You have no excuse. Even a $10 donation is appreciated by these organizations.

Done
Alrighty, I pitched my bucks in the BON pile via CARE.
Come on, folks. Count your blessings, and then bestow some upon those in need.
I refused to name my children Vince, Kevin or Major ... despite my secret desire to do so.

me too.
$150 to a great cause and, as a side benefit, to not be embarassed by the sooners. if only this could decide the game in october too. i can’t imagine how much i’d give for that.

karma, wells. karma.
i’ve got to make up for what i do by giving money away to people who need it more than me (refugees, disaster victims, strippers, etc). that’s the deal i made with myself when i took this job over one at a public defender.

Excellent - keep it coming
As of my donation this morning, I was the only Texas donor thus far.
Let’s show folks our generous Texas spirit.
Don’t forget to forward a copy of your donation receipt to kevin@fanblogs.com, identifying your team affiliation as Texas.
