Hi Sam!!!

I just came across this site called Stuff4Sam. It’s a blog dedicated to raising money to help a 2 year old boy.

Stuff4Sam is about raising money for our 2 year old friend Sam who was paralysed in a car accident last year. We hope to raise 20k in order to buy him a special equipment to stimulate him and help him develop.

At the time of this posting they have raised £18,279 of the total £20,000 needed. I donated £1.00 ($2.01US) towards the cause. I know it’s not much, but that’s all I had on my Paypal account and I know every bit counts.

This blog is the reason for my site!!!! I want to create a community of people who can help people like this easily. My Qwest on myspace is to reach 100,000 friends. Now imagine how quick and easy 100,000 caring people can help children like this around the world. 100,000 people would only need to donate £0.20 and this child would have the special equipment he needs to stimulate and help him develop.

I have a 2½ year old son myself and know how fast they are developing. This equipment will make a huge difference in this boy’s life. And for the sake of £0.20!!!!

In need of a Theme :)

You may notice that the theme on the site may change frequently.  I’m trying to decide on which theme to keep that works best for the site.  I need a theme that will work well with the 3rd party scripts I’m running (for the advertising space, etc).

Once the site gains momentum, I will hire a designer from guru.com or elance.com to create a design and integrate everything together.  In the mean time I need to keep costs to a minimum to get the site up and running.

Design donations welcomed!  If you’re a designer who is willing to donate their time to create a design that integrates Wordpress, a forum (either phpBB or bbPress), myspace page, and another 3rd party script (advertising script which I believe supports themes, possibly smarty), please contact me

In the meantime, please check back often.  If you are a myspace user and want to help be part of this effort, please add me as a friend!!!  Thanks!
