Was hoping a vendor or 2 would step up and offer something.
I don't know any vendors on a personal level that would have any influence with them.
Maybe someone who sees this could reach out.
Neptune did a live show on FB and sold equipment and swag and gave the proceeds to thr Toy Drive. That was awesome of them! They raised $3K! Maybe other vendors will do similar things, but I don't know of any yet. :)

Neptune did have a livestream sale and raised about $3000 for the R2R Toys for Kids drive. Hopefully more will follow their lead in whatever way works for them.

These were always done by private individuals. So far none have happened this year, but they could still happen! Anyone who wants to do that just needs to let us know. :)

I always said that "one of these years" I would do one of those, but then I sold my tank. This will not be that year, maybe next year.

We're at 42% of the goal with about 10 days to go. Please think about what you can do for these kids at this time of year and get some raffle tickets toward some great reef stuff in the process!

@Daniel@R2R do you know if I can donate to the gofundme using commbank? and if I would be able to enter for the prizes being in Australia? Im also guessing we don't get the old badge for it right?
I'm not sure if commbank works for GFM, but if not, you can donate via PayPal directly to [email protected], and you can definitely win prizes, but you'll have to cover shipping. The badges are only for sponsors I think, not donors.

any idea on shipping costs to Australia and do I pay the Aus equilivant for e.g. 100 so 146 or do I do 100 and it auto converts?

I'm honestly not certain on that one.
