Thank Google for Supporting Sick Children

I have to give Google a tip of my hat. Thanks to their 'We'll pay you to put ads on your blog site', we have a good way to support a local Children's Hospital. The funny part is, Google isn't actually aware of our plans. Here's how it works:

Everytime you click on the Google ad in the bottom right corner of our site, Google will pay us for that click. In turn, for every $100 we raise, we will pass that on to the Stollery Children's Hospital (http://www.stollerykids.com/home.html) in the hope that our money will make a difference to a sick child. We'll also keep you posted in the bottom right corner as to how much money we currently sit at. Every click earns us 0.15 cents. It doesn't seem like much but it will certainly add up.

Unrelated to fund raising, we have also put a feature in that same area on our site with photos of missing children. Right now, the links are only for children in the United States (being that this site is in Canada). Maybe one day they will make something for Canada as well or something for all of North America.
