HELP THIS POOR LITTLE BOY!!!!
For those of you who would LOVE to help support the Xavier Society for the Blind (see SHAMELESS BEGGING LETTER below) and yet don't have the ready cash to make those huge contributions - there is another way.
The Xavier Society for the Blind has enrolled in the Goodsearch Program. This means if you search on the Internet using the Goodsearch program, or shop through Goodshop, the Xavier Society receives a small amount for each search and a percentage of each purchase. Please encourage your friends and family to sign up for this easy way to support our work. Doesn’t cost anything, and the more people who use it, the more money we will receive.
GoodSearch.com is a new Yahoo-powered search engine that donates half its advertising revenue, about a penny per search, to the charities its users designate. Use it just as you would any search engine, get quality search results from Yahoo, and watch the donations add up! You can easily and quickly add the Goodsearch option to your toolbar so it automatically credits the Xavier Society each time you make a search.
GoodShop.com is a new online shopping mall which donates up to 37 percent of each purchase to your favorite cause! Hundreds of great stores including Amazon, Target, Gap, Best Buy, ebay, Macy's and Barnes & Noble have teamed up with GoodShop and every time you place an order, you’ll be supporting your favorite cause.
Just go to www.goodsearch.com and be sure to enter Xavier Society for the Blind as the charity you want to support. And, be sure to spread the word!
See? And it doesn't hurt a bit!
The poor little boy at the top is, of course, mine own (and much younger) self, visiting my Great Aunt Mary and Great Uncle Hen at their house in Red Bank. I thought I looked pretty sharp that day, and all these years later, I don't know that I was too far off. Compare that picture with one of me today, and you'll see why I need all the help I can get.
Many thanks - and as we say in the trade, God bless you.
