3rd Annual Mary McDonnell Birthday Donation/Scrapbook Event

[dixgrl78]

Hi everyone!
With it being February and a little over 2 months until Mary's birthday on April 28, now is a good time to kick off the annual birthday donation drive.

The idea, for those new to the event, is to send whatever amount you feel comfortable sending to a selected organization in honor of Mary. In previous years we fans have given just shy

Awesome! I presently have no money at all - there is 70p in my pocket and even that is for postage on a form - but after I've moved, in 2 weeks, I might.

Since I didn't know things were happening in time last year... what's acceptable for the scrapbook, for an example? :)

hiya trialia,

I completely understand about lack of funds, it's really why I announced the donation part of the celebration so early. Since there are a number of weeks between now and the April 21st deadline, it makes it easier to do the dollar/pound/euro a day (or less) idea. Just put back change each day or a certain amount each week, then by the deadline you'll be amazed at how much you have. :D

As for the scrapbook, Starbuck92 will be sending out more specific info on that. But from memory I know that fans sent in photos, artwork, poems, and short letters last year just as some examples.
