It Starts With One

Yesterday afternoon I got a reply from my Email to Jeff Bezos. You can read the original email below, but here is his reply:

“Thank you so much for sharing this. It’s always great to hear all of the kind acts that lead to people having joyous holidays. I’m really glad to hear Amazon (and Prime) were able to help in a small way to make this happen, but all the credit really needs to go to you and the others who followed your example in sharing these gifts.

I hope you and yours have a Merry Christmas and wish you all the best!”

In other updates, the confirmed gift total (excluding donations— several hundred dollars have been donated to Toys For Tots, and ChildsPlayCharities.org) is at $6,300.52 as of 5:44 am on Christmas Eve. As of right now, 102 donors have been confirmed with more still updating their information.

We’ve also been reblogged by the Go Mobile blog of the LA Times (http://go.tumblr.com), and I’ve been interviewed by Sokius (www.sokius.net). Thank you to everyone who made this all possible and a Merry, Merry Christmas to everyone.
