At the last HAF Chat, somehow the topic evolved that we get involved as a group with a charity. The ideal would be an auction. HAF has already offered to host it on this website, but it would probably be easier if we could participate in a charity's existing event because that way they would do all the work. And it would be good promotion for all of us.
I've been talking with a couple of charities, and of course, they would love to raise some money. But before I go any further, and start committing us, are we really interested in pursuing this? Are there enough of us willing to donate an item to be auctioned for a charitable cause? The charities which I've contacted are St. Jude's (children's hospital) and Operation Homefront (supports the families of deployed service men and women). Is there a different charitable group we'd like to support?
