  Old  50% Profit Goes to Charity

Hi,

This post is not to brag, and is not to build my 'image' in any way. I would just like to make this public so I don't decide to change my mind any time soon.

After seeing the aftermath of the China Sichuan earthquake, that killed nearly 70,000 people, I decided that I just can not sit around and do nothing. From this day on, to whenever, I will commit 50% of all personal profit from my online businesses (that does not go directly back into maintaining/building my company) to donate to charity.

Thank You,
Donny

PS, If you haven't checked it out yet, be sure to take a look at the earthquake relief project myself and dozens of other volunteers have been working on: http://www.gracefulyouth.org

It's cool that your doing it, shouldn't be something you don't have to announce. Maybe a ribbon on your website or something, to me this is exactly what you say your trying not to do.

Good Luck, Bless the families in China.
