Something about Christmas brings out the good in all of us, encouraging us to help others that are less fortunate than others. Sometimes, we are the ones that receive the help.
This year, EOGamer.com, Girlgamer.net, Hard4Games.com, ObsoleteGamer.com, UOForums.com, and UOHomeDecor.com are reaching out to you to give to a family in need.
Imagine losing everything you had in a fire. Imagine the Christmas tree, presents, keepsakes, mementos, clothes, gone a little more than a week before Christmas. Your five member family made it out of the home with their lives and only the clothes on their back. This is what happened to the Conley Family of Flint, Mich., this past weekend.
Their 4-year-old son, Rylee, lost his Nintendo 64 and Donkey Kong game in the fire, a game he absolutely loved playing with his family.
Seeing as it’s Christmas, those of us at the sites listed in this article want to reach out and help this family and provide them with a gift for their son. So our sites have teamed up in an effort to reach out to our readers during Christmas time to acquire the following items for the family before Christmas:
- Limited Edition Wii (The 25th Edition Red One)
- Donkey Kong Country Returns for the Wii
- 3 Wiimote + Chuk bundles
- Wii Charge Station Quad
Our goal: To raise at minimum $500 before Dec. 22 to purchase and deliver these items before Christmas to this family.
Complete Details can be found here: Girlgamer.net
Updates will also be posted in the blog section, which includes pictures of the house fire as well as a photo of the fire report (for those who are skeptics).
