Charlie Owen - Reminder: Visual Studio 2005 Raffle for Hurricane Relief Donations

Reminder: Visual Studio 2005 Raffle for Hurricane Relief Donations

If you haven't already given, let this be your incentive, as it was for Brian...

"I got up last Saturday morning planning to go to the Red Cross web site and make a donation and reading your post pressed me to do it sooner rather than later."

I posted Donate To American Red Cross Hurricane Relief To Enter Raffle for a Copy of Visual Studio 2005 at the very start of a long holiday weekend, so perhaps folks missed. Based on the stats for this blog, I have about 200 regular readers. I know Media Center users and developers are a passionate bunch of folks, so I'm hoping the community will step up. The math is pretty awesome...

200 Readers X $100 Each = $20,000

Don't miss out on this wonderful opportunity to help the thousands in need.

[Thanks to Brad C. who caught my poor math skills...]

Wow, that math IS pretty awesome. Does this mean you're matching $9 to every $1 your readers donate? 200 readers x $100 each = $20,000 + $180,000 matching = $200,000.

Good catch, Brad -- I've resolved my calculation error.
