Want a biligual laptop for your child?





In order to help free these toys from customs, I am going to up the ante... To participate in this part of Day 8, you will need to purchase a raffle ticket. 1 raffle ticket per $1 donated, like always. I will raffle off this bilingual Spanish English laptop that you can sent to your sponsor child. To enter the raffle, make the paypal donation to hhamilton2002@hotmail.com Anyone who donates $40 or more will automatically get a laptop, and if the money goes over the price needed to get the toys out of customs, the excess will be distributed to the fundraisers.
So, I will raffle off 1 laptop tonight at 9PM CST for all donations sent to the above paypal account... And, if you donate $40 or more, you will get a laptop automatically!!! (limit of 3 can be given out, so act quickly!)
