C4AC #2 – Comments for a Cause

Comments for a Cause is back on for another full swing. Starting today for the whole month each comment will equal $1 at the end of the month I will be donating the dollar amount to the MS Society. Last year the 1st year Comments for a Cause ran for 13 days and in the end I donated $79 dollars to the Canadian Cancer Society. Which wasn’t bad for the 1st year. This year my max amount will have to be $250 (rest of the money is going towards nationals).

Comments for a Cause came about last October as I wanted to donate money to my local Cancer Society but I wasn’t sure how much to donate so I got Paddling~Geek.Net readers to help out by challenging myself to post daily and them to comment per post. At the end of last years I thought why not try and do two Comments for a Cause events since I donate to two charity’s.

So lets see if I’m up to the challenge again to post daily for 30 days without fail and lets see if we can beat the $79 mark before the 13th day.

If your interested in staying in the loop please subscribe to my rss feed. Just in case you missed the mentioning of a new post on twitter or one of the many forums that I’m on

  As I mentioned earlier, I am going to try and make sure you can max out that donation – I’ve got you subscribed in my reader, just blogged about C4AC on my site, will pimp out #C4AC to the twitterverse, and make sure I get you as much visibility that the Live Blog Player can provide during Canucks Live Blogs.

  Think that will help?
