  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hi:wave: .
I was wondering if any of you moms and dads have ever done any fundraising for your child's special needs - meaning fundraising for any foundation that researches and helps those with your child's special needs?
My boys have Ichthyosis, and last month was "Ichthyosis Awareness Month", and a few parents I converse with on the internet were doind some fundraising for Ichthyosis awareness, And a foundation that reasearches and helps those with this disorder; and I ALMOST followed through on an idea I had, but I ended up overwhelmed by it, some people have ordered bracelets, and sold them (you know, the rubber awareness ones that are popular now?), but I am not sure how that's such a big money maker, more of an awareness thing, I guess.
Anyway, just wonderin if any of you have ever taken on or been involved in fundraising, and how that went, ideas, etc. (Like anyone has time, right?!:help: )
Thanks!
