Community Fund Raiser towards ChildsPlay Charity

Thanks to Jug's suggestion.. Newuay LAN has decided to run a fund raiser for ChildsPlay. This is a charity that helps sick kids in hospitals. The charity is setup and run by gamers. It is gamers who donate and make this charity what it is. Nearly $1 million dollars has been donated to getting sick kids new toys and games.. and here is your opportunity to help out!

If you want to be a part of our community fund raiser to raise a larger sum as a community dont donate directly to the charity, donate through our website. You can find the information in our online shop, heres a direct link:
www.newquaylan.co.uk/shop.htm#donations

Donate anything you can no matter how big or small it all goes towards helping sick kids out in hospitals and its you the gamers that make it happen!

Lets see how much we can raise before the 1st of April.
Newquay LAN will pay all the paypal transaction fees and then come the final count up Newquay LAN will also donate some out of its funds

Thanks ever so much for your help everyone.
I wonder how much we can raise

The fund raiser started well, with fast and generous donations from the core crew of Newquay LAN.

However im a little disappointed with the amount of donations from the rest of the community. Please try and raise awareness of this good cause, tell friends even family.

We are currently in talks about holding a LAN Party and donating most of the proceeds to this charity fund rasier. (Nothing definate yet, its still to be decided upon).

Come on folks, even if you cant afford much, £2 or £3 can help a lot to afford one more game for those sick kids in hospital!

Nice one
I think the problem with donating is that you have to have a card - which means i need a bank account - which means i'll have to open - which means research into the best bank for under 16 year ol's - but i need a bank account anyway - i'm gonna look at bank accounts now

[Nightwalker]

Yes, lol, in actual fact all it does is educate you younger ones that having a bank account is essential in this day and age. you cannot go through life with out one, and its nothing hard or revolutionary to setup. So there is no excuse for not having a bank account and a paypal account, its tire-som hering that excuse.

U dont even have to have a card! all u gotta have is a bank account and u must have one of those because no1 will touch u for ajob without one - for payment reasons.

go get an account - not just mirey but EVERYONE! then get paypal and donate just a few quid! dont go and buy that 6pack of booze - give it to childsplay and help some kid whose gonna die soon have a larf on a PS2 or Xbox or whatever!!!

@ the fundraiser i shall be running a few tourns as per normal and i will be looking to run a tourn with a CASH prize (out of my own pocket and not NQLAN's) if enough people do donate to childsplay!!!!
