Great Charity. KNTG-Kids Need To Game! And thank you for your previous efforts this year as there were many that needed charity.

adding an exclamation point at the end of this looks bad. Several times I have read it as Childs Charity Drivel. funny tho.

<p>You would probably get more support on this if you just said for every $10 you spend in the market place we'll donate $1 or something else.  I have no need for a wooden box that follows me around...that's just awkward.  Maybe a dradel, but even that's pushing it.</p>

<p>I've long wanted a straight "Donate!" button.  I'd throw 1000SC that way, easy.</p>

<p>Question -- the snowfall cloak that was offered in a previous year (last year?) is listed in the sale tab and the examine text still lists it as a Child's Play charity drive item, however it's not listed under the Child's Play category.  Could someone please confirm whether the cloak is intended to qualify for the $10.00 SOE donation this year?  Because some folks are purchasing it thinking that they are making a donation.</p>

[simianthief]

<p>That anklebiter doll is AWESOME.  I would love that!</p>

[Debbani]

<p>I looked at it too.  Wish y'all coulda come up with a better donation item.  A deco child of each in game playable race would go along with the theme of donating to a charity that benefits children and give decorators a new room to consider decorating.  A kids room.</p>

[simianthief]

<p>I would totally put in a kid's room in one of my houses with a bunch of anklebiters running around!</p>
