Hi all
You can hardly miss it, can you?
We've decided to go pink for a while in support of breast cancer awareness.
We've set up a donation page and hope that people will not only donate directly but also perhaps run auctions or competitions during october in support of the fund.
We have set a target of £300 and the forum will return to its usual more "conservative" colours when the target is reached. Like holding you to ransom, really!
The donations page will stay open until the end of November!
Come on FH! Let's see what we can do!

Thank you for starting off the fund raising Kaz, I am really excited about this project and hope that everyone embraces the temporary pinkness with a light heart and sense of fun.

I am sure it won't take this wonderful forum long to get back to normality - whatever that is anyway ;D

Great idea. Will someone maybe start an auction or competition type thing or something so we can donate that way? Not sure about starting any myself but very happy to take part.  :)

I think it looks brilliant, lovely and bright.
As a survivor of eight years October is always a good month. Great idea.
Pink beads for me today.  ;D

It's red - but I think we can be excused in the circumstances.   ;D

Could we do a Forum Giveaway on the blog to raise awareness?

As it is a fund raising project it would be best to keep the auctions/for sale information on forum. There is a Frit Happens Fund for Breast Cancer widget on the blog.

If anyone wants to put the widget on their own blog too you can find the code to add the gadget here http://www.donatetobreastcancer.org/rss/GetFundraisingBadge.asp?eventgivinggroupid=2795618
