We’re pleased to announced that just one full week into our 2009 campaign we have already collected $300 so far for Santa’s Sleigh. That sounds like very little when compared against our lofty goals (Drew’s needs could be in excess of $50,000) but that total is far ahead of our first year of operation. Also, we have the following good news to report of other activity:

1. A fund raiser has been scheduled around Thanksgiving in Utah.
2. A fund raiser is being organized in California.
3. We have now more than 40 websites pointing back to Santa’s Sleigh and/or taking contributions on behalf of Santa’s Sleigh.
4. Forum contests are being organized in our Christmas communities online — these keep the focus on Santa’s Sleigh and makes the effort fun.
