Evidently there are a lot of people out there who are better people than I am. Though I attempt to volunteer as often as I can, I have still not donated toChild’s Playthis year. However, a lot of people have and that makes them better people than me. So many people have donated that the Penny Arcade charity has raised$1,010,680.28 (this was as of Friday afternoon, so it’s probably even higher now) and the main drive hasn’t even ended yet.
The charity is hoping to beat its $1.4 million raised last year, and seems to be on schedule to do that. It probably helps that fundraisers such as theDesert Bus Marathonare bringing in record amounts this year as well. Everyone who has donated please pat yourself on the back for helping the world be a better place for sick children. Those who haven’t donated yet, consider this a guilt trip: I’m donating a dollar right now. You should too.
