Free Retro (that means vintage) Postcards if You Help this Guy Get to Oxford

Yesterday- I was over at 3 Bucks for Brendan which in case you are not familiar with: it’s basically a website run by a Mr. Brendan Baker, who is soliciting donations so he can study Social Entrepreneurship at Oxford. Which sounds like a really cool course of study- I think he is already working that system (if you know what I mean). I think Brendan is for real and it sounds like a good enough cause, so he gets a plug on OOAKWI.

However, if helping a guy get up enough funds for Oxford is not incentive enough- if you act quickly (next 50 donors) his lovely Mother will send you a “thank you” note on a retro postcard for your donation. Of course, you know that did it for me and I immediately parted with $3 Canadian via Paypal.

Personally- I love cyber-begging! It’s so much more cleaner and nicer then dealing with real hobos and drunks. I am actually trying to get up enough nerve to put my begging site up.

The “help a woman with five kids out who doesn’t want to use her college degree for a real job,” is the tentative name, if I can register the domain. There I’ll post pictures of my kids when they are really dirty and perhaps unwell. In exchange for donations - I will be your email friend or even your chat buddy depending on how big the donation. Email me for details and my Paypal donation address.

Anyway- back to Brendan, help the guy out and get a vintage postcard! Or just do it because you’re a nice person. Me- I have to get something in return, like a cool vintage postcard. It better not be lame or this post goes down- buddy!

BTW- if he doesn’t get enough to go to Oxford; Brendan says he’s turning the money over to two charities Engineers Without Borders and Medecins Sans Frontieres. Good luck with your fund raising Brendan!
