Just a quick update on the Zone's 2007 Birthday Project :happybday: in support of Great Ormond Street Hospital . . . donations have now reached $3,300! :applause: :yahoo:

We can be very proud (as always) of the generosity and kindness of the Zone's members and readers . . . you are doing a wonderful job supporting the hospital.

We will be accepting donations throughout the month of June, so this is both a hearty :thanks!: to all who have donated, and a reminder that it is not too late to participate. As we have shown before, we can do great things when we work together.

May you enjoy a wonderful weekend knowing that you have reached out to help and comfort sick children :grouphug: and those who love and care for them.

And :birthdayballoon: to Johnny Depp, who brings out the best in us.

I can understand you, dear Ibbi...the vet is always very expensive.. I know that... :-/ Wish your kitten good luck! :hope: :hope: :hope:
I think we all know that you would donate if possible...like many others who might not be able to donate too... and I think even Johnny would understand it.. we do what we can, but if we aren´t able..nobody will say or think something bad...

So great to hear. I found an extra $15 yesterday I forgot I had in my purse so I sent that along for a second donation. Figured every little but helps.
There are four questions of value in life... What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for, and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love.

Hello dear DA, I agree with you. And ibbi, certainly their are many zoners who cannot contribute at this time, but I think the donations that are made are from all of us...really, we are family in a way. One gives it is on behalf of all. Everytime you post or reach out to another zoner, you contribute to the spirit of the zone and that is what generates the success of the project. So you do make a contribution, ibbi. Very much so.
