Last Minute Assistance – Help Families with Muscular Dystrophy Have a Good Christmas

Dec
18

Written by: Dominick at 3:15 am

I posted about an annual fundraiser I have every year, where I do an adopt a family program for families in financial need. These families are struggling in part, because they have at least one child with Muscular Dystrophy. Last year, we helped three families thanks to many volunteers. This year, over 20 people initially emailed to help then backed out. Only one family, my grandfather, Willis and my now deceased grandmother Melba, helped buy two toys for kids with Muscular Dystrophy.

I am asking from the bottom of my heart for you to help me raise $500 ASAP for these kids. I was inspired by Chris Brogan, who raised $500 in 20 minutes. I wish I could do what he did and match it, but I don’t have that kind of money this year. That’s why I’m asking all of you. Please, donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can give.

You can see pictures of the kids you’ll be helping by: CLICKING HERE.

Please help these families by donating below:

If you have trouble: donate to Paypal directly:



DONATE $50 and @debworks will give you a free 1/2 hour consult to see how toxic your home is

DONATE $60 and @keithburtis will give you a free hour of social media consulting

DONATE $100 and I (@dominickevans) will offer up to 10, well written, well edited articles for your business. I used to be a full time tech writer and editor. I have worked with many companies as their writer.

I’ll be using all the money raised to buy these children the gifts they want this Christmas.

***UPDATE*** - We’ve raised $380 dollars, but we only have one more hour, to raise our goal of $500 can you help?!
