(very generous Beasty - hats off to you)

Beasty

Well by my reckoning that's 10 x €10 on Thursday, 13 x €20 on Friday. Another 5 pledges (from different posters!) today and I'll push it up to €500....

I occasionally unsticky it to let it float in the main threads area. There is something we call "sticky-blindness" where people skip straight past the stickies and on to the new threads, so occasionally unstickying this is a good idea. But then I went to the pub and forgot to sticky it again (so thanks for the reminder!)


This year we worked on a few really interesting projects, when I get a chance I'll sit down and write up a few of them! I have jury duty next week (how random is that... great timing eh?!) but maybe this weekend I'll get a free moment.

I got called too but got out of mine!

I'm about to eat my t but I'll pledge after it.


Also I shall pledge a larger amount the day I get paid before Christmas

Fair play beast man

30€ paid by bank transfer just now

50 quid by bank transfer with 8 mins to spare!

Beasty

Bank transfer of €500 made

Yay \:)/

I'm in early this year - €50, 1833-2688-0599-0540.

Maybe I'll forget and go again in December

Beasty

And now for something slightly different.....

This pledge is not to do with how much, but how many.

So here's the deal:

I will pledge based on the number of unique posters (re-regs of someone who has already pledged don't count!), who pledge donations in this thread between now and the end of the year

10 pledges = €100
25 pledges = €250
100 pledges = €1,000
250 pledges = €2,500 (we didn't get that many last year, so let's see if we can get the full might of AH behind the appeal this year)
500 pledges - well you can probably guess:pac:

Happy Cyber Monday everyone

Swamp3

The Beasty bonus has really outdone itself this year. Watch out...You're in danger of giving cyclists a good name.
Keep up the great work SSF.
200 notes to the fund.

Diamond Doll

€5.66 donated.

Partly because that's all that's in my bank account. And partly because it means someone else will feel obliged to donate the difference to bring the total back to an even number!

GLaDOS

Incredible as always Beasty, I've updated the OP with those details so it doesn't become lost in the thread. If everyone could even throw in a couple of euro we can make a big difference

Scared the sh*t out of me Beasty.... I went to check the accounts expecting to see a dwindling number and got the shock of my life... my mind started racing about what possible transaction could have reversed?!


Its already spent too, but Fr Peter McVerry is a lot happier this xmas already

Any chance we can have a running total in the OP.....I've no idea how much has been raised, my maths is not as good as it used to be

confusticated

By my reckoning on this thread there's €1920 so far, but not everybody has said how much they put in and some people might not post so it's a bit more really.

I came up with €1,950. Plus another €100 from me as we've gone past 10 pledges, so we're through the €2k barrier....

Fr McVerry Trust is opening 4 new family homeless houses, specifically aimed at people with kids and a outreach young persons café to help provide ongoing support.

SSF hit all 5 with Xboxes and games for xmas on Wednesday!

Just watching people of the year awards at the moment, is there any chance that hughshouse.ie could be added as a potential charity? http://www.hughshouse.ie/what-we-do.html

Fantastic initiative providing accommodation to families of kids in Temple Street and the Rotunda, truly inspiring.

I'll be donating in the next few days to SSF btw

DeVore

Very cool... I'll put them on the list.

Very simple. You tell us what you want for Xmas, we get it for you.


No paper work?

We're not really paperwork kinda people.
