Yes, or No, Virginia, 2014?

As we are in the first full week of November and I have again begun to receive inquiries, I wanted to open up the idea of Yes, Virginia / Namaste for 2014. 

Like last year at this time, I go back and forth with opening it up again to ask for funds. 

And just as I wrote last year:  I know times are tighter than ever for people, so if it is simply not possible that we do it this year, I understand.  We have done great work for many years keeping Santa alive.  And we have used the fund this past year to help several fellow DGMS family members in need.

If you can donate, I promise, as always, to pinch every penny till it begs for mercy, to find every discount and coupon code possible.

If you are new to DGMS and are unsure about what the fund is, what it does, or how to donate, you can read all about it HERE.  And you can see some of the little faces we have brigtened through the years.

 Families need our help.  Let me know what you think and we can move forward from there.

I am so glad that I am able to donate this year. Thank you so much for all you do for all the families Linda. You and the people of this blog, my "other family" came through for my sisters family when it was needed, and I am happy I am able to pay back a little now. ELF ON!!!!

For the first time...I AM IN! And I am supremely happy to donate! I'm not sure when I will get my first paycheck, but when I do, Namaste is FIRST on my list! I am so happy you are doing this again Linda. You give so much happiness to so many people. Love you so much!

I'm in!

I will also donate....even if we can provide something for one family or child, it's better than nothing.

my two cents, I will send money, as I always do, should you decide to do the leg work. I appreciate you so much for doing this every year. It is going to be tight this year, as it has been in years past, but the way I look at it, I'm working and getting a steady paycheck, and to be able to help those that aren't and who have children that might not have a present to open on Christmas morn? It's a no-brainer!
