Good After noon to everyone... I want to thank everyone personally for their pledges and assure everyone that this program is an opportunity to give to someone who is in your online community and has a need whether it is a child or an adult. For those in need that is what this program is about, to assure that everyone has the best Christmas filled with love and joy. I know for myself, it is a pleasure and it blesses me more to give than to receive, and my experience with this online family is exactly that. We take care of each other and we want to know that all is having the best possible christmas this year. So for those who have pledged a hearty thank you and for those in need, allow us an opportunity to fullfil the need to share and give.

Everything is done by transaction numbers and there is a reason for that. One is hippa laws do not allow us to share information without permission, but more importantly it is to protect the privacy of those who give and those who have requests. For those who choose to give and want to shop for the family themselves, or those who want to know more about the family they are giving too, we have developed a clause of communication for both situations. We simply will ask if the person with the need will allow us to give the information to another party. We all want to make this as pain free and human as possible. Help us help our family.

As you know I will be mostly off line for the next 7 - 10 days at least, so please send all communication to Spring and she will assure that everything is updated and communicated. Again, thank you so much. I can't tell you in mire words what this program means to me and the opportunity that it presents to provide assistance to others so that their Christmas is wonderful. Always remember that Christmas was never about the retail and gifts per sey but about an opportunity to remember those that we love and often that is done through gifts.

Best wishes to all.... always...in my heart..love Red
