It only takes a minute.... and WILL help someone.
* I * 6 * Y

Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least one free mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on ' donating a mammogram ' for free (pink window in the middle).

This doesn ' t cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

Here ' s the web site! Pass it along to people you know.

http://www.thebreastcancersite.com/


AGAIN , PLEASE TELL 10 FRIENDS TO TELL 10 FRIENDS

I'm not saying it isn't a worthy cause, but all the adverts have prices in dollars - is the charity or whatever it is just operating in the US?

What the heck does it matter. It's a charity for goodness sake and they're having financial difficulties. What's it going to cost you to just click on a link which'll help this charity meet their funding targets.


I really cant believe the thinking of some people who use this forum - dross of humanity more like it until things come home to roost and then bet you'll be the first to start shouting.

Do you really think that insulting the users of this forum is going to help your cause?

So now you're not asking people to do this but telling them!
Lose the self righteous attitude and you may get a better response.

No offence peeps, but he/she isn't asking you to do it for him/her...but for the charity!

Although he/she was a bit touchy when asked.

A bit touchy? We were labelled as the dross of humanity

When you visit the breast cancer site please go along the tabs at the top to visit the hunger site and the rainforest site etc, because you can click those and donate food to the UNHCR and the like by a click too.

All I meant was don't not click just because of that.

It's extraordinary that a thread seeking free help for a charity can get into an argument within less than a dozen posts. Regardless of who is at fault there if a charity benefits from a few clicks on a computer it's a bit naughty of anyone to deny the charity anything because of the way the message was sent.

In this country, but not in virtually every other country of the world.
