i’m commenting to let you know why we (my boyfriend and i) want to go to Disneyland. We are new parents, just had a baby boy named Benjamin. i would like to win the tickets because my boyfriend has never gone to Disneyland. He recently lost him mother, very tragically, and i would like to take his mind off of how she past away and spend time with his son and i at the “happiest place on earth!”

We need your help! My sons school SOAR Charter Academy was hit with a tragedy on Saturday around 3:30 pm. A group of kids, not from the school, were playing with fire while it was windy and the playground equipment caught on fire! This is a charter school which means that they are not apart of the unified school district so it’s not like they could just get a check from the district to replace the equipment. Our teachers, parents and kids all put in time and effort in raising the funds and building the playground. This school helps our kids not only academically but also with character building, to create children who are well rounded citizens who give back to their community. Right now the school is in a voting contest through facebook and chase to win $25,000, that the school desperately need!! If you can read this on air it would mean a great deal not only to me but to the 257 students who have been affected by this senseless tragedy. All the facebookers have to do is follow this link to Chase Community Giving, “like” the page and then search for SOAR Charter Academy in the charities and vote! It takes less than 60 seconds and it can change the lives of these well deserving teachers, staff and children. The link to the voting is http://www.facebook.com/ChaseCommunityGiving and if you would like more information about the school their webpage is http://www.soarcharteracademy.org.
I am awake right now with worry because in about 2 1/2 hours I have to take my sons to school and they will see what has h append to their beloved school. When I told them what had happened, they both burst in tears and couldn’t understand why anyone would do this. Please help us!!
