shadesong is trying to raise money to send her daughter Elayna to
Explo, an amazing summer camp for gifted and talented kids. This is the sort of program that I would have walked through fire to attend at that age.
Elayna's been accepted, but the problem is that with the economy the way it is, there were people who needed the financial aid even more than she did.
So,
shadesong has organized a raffle (to which I donated a couple of items). Tickets are a dollar apiece, with a slight discount if you buy a bunch at once.
Details are in this post on
shadesong's journal:
