Diego's aunt needs your help!

Diego's aunt stepped in a few years ago to take care of him after both of his parents passed away. She has struggled to provide Diego with the things he needs to stay alive. Several terrific folks have stepped up to help her with that. Through his fundraiser, he received cans of pediasure, a bed, amoung other items.

Now, we are in the last leg of the fundraiser. We need approximately $1,100 more to assist his aunt with her business. The money will be used to buy food items, a refridgerator, and pay off her debt (the loan that she received to start the business).

I have been told that there is a company match donation of $500 coming to his fundraiser soon~ which means we would only need $600 more!

To help Diego's aunt, please visit Aura's House:

Don't forget- There is something in it for you, too (besides the great feeling of helping someone)- I am holding a raffle at the end of the fundraiser for $100! Here are the details:

For every $10 donated, you will receive 1 raffle ticket.
At the end of the fundraiser, I will get a spread sheet of the donors.
I will use this spread sheet to print off the raffle tickets.
My daughter Jaden will draw a number out of the hat to determine the winner.
The winner will receive a brand new black 4GB Microsoft Zune Video and Music MP3 player or $100 USD gift card!!
