Very good point. I almost donated directly through the link in the email. Glad I came here first to make sure this was still on. I would have donated before 3 PM!
I also wish they would have known they were going to do this when I posted about donating a few weeks ago. This thread was started 10/14. I donated $50 here and $24 to Megan's Birthday wish on Facebook on 10/13! Not sure how much more I can give right now, but will at least do the $10.
Was primary caregiver to my daughter Heather who had stage IV base of tongue SCC w/ primary recurrence. Original diagnosis August 21st, 2002. Primary recurrence March 18th, 2003. Died October 6th, 2003.

I've got the same problem. Office computer blocks the site. Will try from home tonight.
Come on folks. We are already two and half hours into this and only a few people have donated so far. Can't you at least spare $10?
Take care,
Eileen

| Donna, We did receive your donation! Thank you very much it is greatly appreciated : ). Megan | | | | | Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts) | | Patient Advocate (old timer, 2000 posts)
Joined: Mar 2008 Posts: 3,082 | Don I think you donated to OCF but DID NOT enter this contest I just realized in reading these posts that the OCF forum automatically puts the word donation into a red link Directly to OCF. To enter the giving challenge today , you need to use the first blue link: OCF Giving challenge link not the donation in red links. The good news is that the donation red link does indeed go directly to OCF as Megan pointed out and your email confirms, but it does not count in this contest, only clicks through the contest link. So again folks, click on the giving challenge link tonight and tomorrow for this contest. You will go to a page that has a tip feature and you will get an email from [email protected]"that reads like this: [quote]Dear xxxx, On behalf of your favorite charities and Causes, we thank you for your generous support! Your donation is being made to Network for Good, a nonprofit, donor advised fund, which processes donations made through Causes and distributes them to your chosen charity. Your credit card will therefore list CAUSES NETWK FOR GOOD (or simply, "Network for Good"), not the names of the charities receiving the funds. All donations are final and may not be refunded. Details of your donation are listed in the donation Record below. Thank you again for visiting Causes![/quote] --------------------------------------------------------------[quote]----- donation RECORD Your contribution is tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. You may save or print this receipt for your records and the information will be conveniently stored in your donation history for you to access at any time.
