Quote
Dearest DDF Family!

I cannot begin to express my gratitude and thanks for the outpouring of love which I see, I am humbled by my fellow DDF'ers who took it upon themselves to join the fundraising effort and help me in my time of need. It gladdens my heart to be part of such a family, who will go out of their way to help their fellows in need, whether it is financial or otherwise. I will be forever grateful to all of you, to those who donated the prizes, to those who donated money, and to those who made this a reality.

Thanks again!



What's this all about?
If you've been following this thread you may know that a longtime DDF'er who has a young family was arrested for being on the scene at the time of the sting operation.  Many of you have probably even met him in the real world. Several generous DDF'ers have donated prizes to be raffled off to bring attention to the defense fund created on his behalf.

If your name is in the wiki please write was X will be X...

Amazing article Dan!

I was moved to tears when earlier today when reading the original article on the forum.

We really are a family! So true what you say, especially about the other cause you mentioned. I just donated there again and doubled my original donation, and this time it was also L"N Jewda. 

I was thinking - If I am so hurt about the loss of one DDF member, I / We really all should donate to the other campaign as much as we can.

Who knows what our dollars will do for him!

Guys - Chap Arein! "chatof viechol, chatof ushise"
real-brisker

I posted this comment in Dans article in the main site. I hope it inspires other to donate

Can you add up as if poeple will double as we are basically there anyway. i'm sure we will get 20 before the raffle.

A big question we have to address is people who didn't send the confirmation email, are they in pending verification if they win? Or out and tough luck?

Also how do we do if someone wins multiple prizes? They get the 1st prize they won from each level of the raffle?

Another ~$1500 if wiki is accurate.

I say if they win then they gotta verify.

There is a rule only one prize per person?

I noticed you wrote $18,852 instead of 15852.

As of now we passed $16000, just a few thousand more to 20k!

Once again, on the Google doc, all the way at the bottom, there is a part to he updated for those doubling.


Also I hope that all names mentioned on the gdoc will participate in the drawing. If needed, the winner can be asked proof that he or she donated.
The emailing part is a bit messy.

Now I understand.

Someone opened another gdoc, and copied all the info.... Hence no movement in the other gdoc...

Whats the idea of the new one?

I was looking at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmYaTGqZnvb2dFlOaDU3U3ZBMEdabm9DTEFiX2hRMUE&usp=drive_web#gid=0

where I updated the codes a bit and cleaned up...
