Child’s Play 2007

Posted by myjaxon On November - 14 - 2007

It’s that time of year again…Child’s Play is up and running. I am pretty sure this is my favorite charity. Every year I try and promote it, because it’s such a great idea.

The Child’s Play Organization was founded by the Penny Arcade creators as a way for gamers to give back to the community. This year, they have 45 different children’s hospital that have put together wish lists through Amazon and they are trying to beat last year’s total (which was over a million dollars). The wish lists on Amazon have everything under the sun - priced as low as $1 to as high as the cost of an Xbox 360. Everything on the lists is something that the hospital needs, something their children will use and will bring smiles to their faces during difficult times.

Even if it’s something small, pick a hospital and donate something. It’s the Christmas season after all. It’s the perfect time to help.

About Me

I am a stay at home mom with my first child, sometimes wondering what I have gotten myself into. I have an amazingly supportive husband, who is also a computer geek with a slight anti-social complex.

I love books, but if you want to know more, check out Literary Escapism. I'm also beginning a new venture as a Pampered Chef Consultant. I love to cook and it's a great way to supplement our income while still staying home with Ian.
