For Princes Birthday - a contribution?

http://www.elevatehope.or...rtists.php


Just thought this may be something we should do or consider instead of thinking of ourselves for a change.

A wonderful site, it takes time to look all the way through and read peoples stories, a fab glossary of MMPLS sound and a way to send a present to Prince that means something?

just a thought.

No offense...but how does this "send a present to Prince?" As far as I can tall from the website, he isn't involved with this group, at all (except for having slept with/employed a number of its members).

Not that it isn't a worthy cause...I just don't think it has anything to do with Prince. shrug
We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

If you look through the site you will see he is one of the founder members of the charity, its not a group!! that was the list for a fundraiser they did and thats everyone who was involved. Its Sheila Es charity.

I thought it might be nice to donate to them seeing as fans cant send a present directly to prince - just seemed a nice gesture as the charity is for abused young people and aims to give them hope in life through music, which we take for granted as our right!

thats all.

I want to say thanks again to Sheila 4 taking the time in her life to put together such an organization...Some of us can only do so much...

Although I wish war did not ever exist...I have thanked those that have done what they have on behalf of freedom...I don't want to get into the hypocricy that goes with that subject.

I have always wanted an organization that focused on something, and could never get it off the ground...So I am thankful that a woman I support is doing what she can for Children and their mother's. I believe in surecurez. T

from She who made him smile
for the 1st time in his life
tell her sir
how would he prefer
to treat his only wife?
the gifts already been given
a picture of a fox
take the keys that have been given
to free him from his box
is he man enough to handle
a meeting face to face
or is the song yet another
laid to commercial waste?

something to think about
between now
and the birth
day.

She may play the slob
And wear this very part
With tattered-T's
And ripped up jeans
And hiding what she's got.

I think it's a nice gesture. Of course as individuals we could donte, but I'm curious as to what you propose as an "Org Contribution"?

Also, does Prince support the following charities (from a website Look to the Stars http://www.looktothestars...638-prince ):

City of Hope
Edith Couey Memorial Scholarship Trust Fund
Elevate Hope Foundation
H.A.L.O.
Jazz Foundation of America
The Bridge
Urban Farming
