FIRST GOAL ATTAINED!

It looks like the popularity of the Canadian coffee chain Tim Horton's and the post below were instrumental in putting us over the hump and achieving our first goal of $250 US for the donation to The Smile Train: http://www.smiletrain.org/site/PageServer?pagename=mission

The receipt from tonight's donation is posted above so we can't be accused of taking your money.


Thanks to the following supporters (in order of our receipt of their donations) who have been instrumental in paying for a cleft palate surgery on a child currently living somewhere in the third world:


Sarah Boyle - United Kingdom


Mark Shaw - Ontario


Jessica Sweeney - Oregon


Nadine Anheier - Kansas


Richard Emond - Florida


Joy Beer - Ohio


William Burden - Ontario


The Atheist Missionary - Ontario (I don't see any reason why I can't pat myself on the back)


The first donation was dedicated in honour of Princeton philosopher Peter Singer and I encourage you all to pick up a copy of his new book The Life You Can Save: http://www.amazon.com/Life-You-Can-Save-Poverty/dp/1400067103. This book has inspired our second charitable goal to raise $500 US for the Worldwide Fistula Fund: http://www.wfmic.org/
