My youngest, Sydney, a sophomore at UCLA, will once again participate in the UCLA Dance Marathon on Valentines Day 2010. Everyone dances for 26 straight hours, after having raised money for various AIDS foundations (Project Kindle, Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, OneHeartland), while not only DJ music plays, but they have live bands and motivational speakers. She is hoping to raise at least $500... $10 (or more) at a time. Her Dance Marathon page is here. I hope you can support her in this cause (as a number of you did last year), and that we can keep this thread on the front page from now to the marathon.

Thank you,
If it wasn't for bad taste, I wouldn't have no taste at all.

She missed her last two finals: was sent home with H1N1. Yesterday, she finished her meds, and her temperature has returned to normal (104 before meds, 103 the first day, 101 subsequent days), so in the next day or two, she's returning to the ice rink to practice for this weekend's ice skating show at Sacramento's Iceland... two shows on Saturday, one on Sunday. I'll be operating a spotlight all three shows.

Remember to danate to the Dance Marathon... thank you.

Will donate on pay day - yeah I know, weird that a Brit is donating to a US person who he never met, who in turn is the daughter of a man I know only as VibroCount (or Cliff)

Good to hear she is getting better

At least two members here have donated so far (thank you!).

So I'll give this a bump to try to get some more non last minute donations.

Thanks!

While Sydney has reached her goal (and surpassed it), her team has not.

The dance marathon is just one week from this Saturday.

Can you help?

Here is where you can donate.

Thank you.

Another bump. Only three days until the dance marathon starts. Sydney is raising money for various AIDS foundations (Project Kindle, Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation, OneHeartland). Thank you all who have contributed so far.

I would have donated, but I've no credit card.    Sorry.

In first post it sounds like this is every year, so if it's next year again: Please post. Then I should have a credit card.

Btw, this is your daughter? ... Good job!

Good idea for pinning, Ken.  You're also a benefactor.

Yes, Sydney is my daughter, the youngest of my three children. I have two older kids from my first marriage, and my present wife and I have Syd, who is in her second year at UCLA. I am certain that she will participate in this next year as well. Last year they posted for anyone to see every contributor and their contributions. This year, they only give that information to each dancer.

Thank you.
