This is a personal request to my blog readers to see if you could be part of viral campaign to send 10 East Palo Alto champion football players to Florida.

I’m looking to find 1k friends @ $10 to raise funds to send underpriveledged families to Florida.As some of you know East Palo Alto is a very diverse community often trying to make end meet. What you have there is a vibrant community of families with energy and great kids who are athletic and smart.

UPDATE: YOU CAN PAY WITH A CREDIT CARD VIA THE PAYPAL LINK – YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A PAYPAL USER. JUST STEP UP AND PUT DOWN THE CREDIT CARD…

Click here and donate $10 and send an 8th grade football champion to Florida to compete for national championship and change a boys life forever.

Recently the Palo Alto Knights 13yr olds have gone undefeated and were recently invited to Florida to compete for the AYFL National Championship in the All American Division. Now ten (10) families can’t send their kids due to financial difficulties.

Change a life and donate $10 or more.

What is the total for collections now and how much more do you need. I only want to nag people if the money is still needed.

And please add to your blog that people can pay with credit cards by following the paypal link. I have had a few questions.
