Every Bit Of Thunder

Hello everyone,

As many of you may know, Project Hope just purchased 4 new blades and sent them out to our hosts. BadHat will have 2 TSC Blades and JMartin will have 2 more UD blades. Unfortunately this has depleted TDPH's bank account so it is time to raise some more money.

We decided we would like to try a different type of fundraiser that is not only of interest to Team Discovery, but everyone that is into computers. For every $5.00 USD you donate to TDPH, we will enter your name into the drawing for a computer we are giving away.

We can't just make it a regular computer though, so we have employed our Master Case Modder, AndrewJ. For those of you not familiar with AndrewJ's work, take a look at this thread »On the crunching front..... He has detailed instructions and a video available for anyone wishing to make one of these themselves.

Here is what we are giving away.



»Kind of a poor mans Shuttle

AMD Athlon XP 2500+ Barton
BIOSTAR nForce2 IGP Chipset Motherboard with
On board GF4 video, 6 channel surround sound, USB2.0 and onboard LAN.
DVD/CD 24X
512MB PC3200 DDR
15GB HDD
200w emachine generic PSU
Two color quiet fan.

This fund drive will begin on March 4th and will end on March 12th and we will hold the drawing on March 15th. All donations and entries postmarked after March 12th will not be eligible for this giveaway.

Here is how to enter by donating to TDPH. You can use this link to donate via PayPal or you can send a check or money order to:

Project Hope
P.O. Box 1330
Grove City, Ohio 43123-1330.
Please include an e-mail address with your donation.
Also, your BBR username would be helpful, but not necessary.



TDPH Giveaway

You will receive an e-mail confirmation from giveaway@tdprojecthope.com within 24 hours of receipt of your donation and/or entry.

The drawing will be video taped and the video will be posted on TDPH. We will also post an announcement and a link to the video here and will also notify the named person via e-mail.

JoJo

No purchase/donation necessary to enter the giveaway.
Please see our giveaway page for full details.

This is a great idea. I'll try to get in on this. I also want to get my retro cruncher from Andrew too. So maybe I can have 2 of these babies on my shelf.

Re: Every Bit Of Thunder

Wow, Peter awesome job on setting up such a professional giveaway! I know Lisa and others helped also. I feel a little guilty since I can see that was way more work than just building the box.

Tried to do the paypal donate, got this:

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@paypal.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Is there an alternate way to donate that doesn't involve pen and paper? Thanks!

Re: Every Bit Of Thunder

Sure go to the regular donation page »www.tdprojecthope.com/Donations_Proj.html and try that link. There should be an comments box when you make the donation. Put "for giveaway" and your BBR username in the comments box.

If that link does not work, you have a security setting that will not allow the form data to transfer to PayPal. Let me know and I will send you a PM with another way to donate online.

To give with no expectations of personal gain. It's a weird karma thing. :P

Good luck to all in the raffle, and much thanks to the folks who have worked so hard to put this together. Great idea!!
