Well I was initially informed of this when two different DPF Members sent me text messages this afternoon to explain the situation and ask if there was any way we can help…

Well of course the first thing in my mind is a game to raise funds… But to be honest, my wife had banned me from games until the MOD’s make a decision as to how to handle them…


But unfortunate news brought a much needed reason for her to give in and let me have one last very special giving game…


Thus the Goofy Giving Game #2 will be coming soon…

A member of our DPF Family had to be hospitalized last Saturday and is to remain there until Thursday at the earliest… They are conducting tests and continue to monitor their condition… I would like to keep their name anonymous as medical issues are personal… I will say they are a single parent and a week off work without pay alone will put the family in distress… there are utilities, rent, food, and numerous other expenses that many of us would like to try and help with…


I will be accepting donations of pins for the giving game #2 as well as any other donations anyone would care to make… I will need the list of any donated pins via PM by Thursday so that we can have the game start on Friday…


As with all my games, everyone is a winner in one form or another and the funds gained will be donated to the family to assist them during these tough times…


As this may be my last game my wife permits me to do… I am hoping it will be bigger and better than our last great giving game…


For those of you who know this member, I ask that you keep their name confidential out of respect…


Thank You from all concerned DPF Members…

Thank you again for the responses... I truly appreciate it...
 
I am trying to respond to everyones PM's, but tears are rolling down my face from your absolute generousity and it is hard to read my messages...

Again, I am sorry it is taking a couple days to reply as this has been a very emotionally stressful week…

We were hoping for our dear friend to be released from the hospital by now, unfortunately their stay is prolonged…

I will keep everyone posted of much as possible regarding their progress...
 
I don't have any pins yet that are worth putting in a game, but I'd be happy to send a little something. Wish I could do more. . I hope they are up and around soon, and able to enjoy the Holidays with their children.
 
I am sorry I missed this post until today! II will look forward to playing the game to help and send a little something to paypal to help. Hope your friend is getting better.
 
Moe you really are a credit to this community. Such a kind person and I'm glad I have had the priviledge to get to know you and can't wait to do so further. You're a fab person, really you are. Merry Christmas to you and your family and best wishes being sent across the pond for your friend.

If I had seen this post sooner I would have sent you something but it would probably take too long to get to you in time for the game.

Here's wishing you a stressfree Christmas and all the best for 2013.

Thank you all and as far as pins arriving in time, that is just fine... There will be a sale immediately after the game ends for all the remaining pins and great prices for a final surge of funds... So if anyone would still like to send items, please feel free to do so... All the help we could get would truly be appreciated...
 
oh boy...i also just saw this.....i will play and send something extra in the paypal......

Now why cant we play games? Cause of the bingo thingy? All the other games were fine i thought because there was an exchange of funds for pins......seems ok to me. ah what do i know!

This is such a great thing to do. My uni hasn't paid me again but if they do in time I will deffinately be joining in. This is why I love dpf!!
 
You're doing a good thing, very nice...TheMuchnessofDisney is sending a large package with several pins. [/eyebrows going up/down] We're quite sure that it will be very fruitful in the game - good luck and keep up the true spirit of Disney Magic!
