Hello all,
As you know, GPXPlus's anniversary is February 14th, making this a special month. It's also a very trying time right now for a lot of people for reasons I'm sure you're already aware of. The GPX staff would like to take a moment to say we respect all people regardless of their gender, race, religion, or other background. This year, we're pledging to donate all money received from February's Plus Credits to the American Civil Liberties Union. As stated on their website, "The ACLU works tirelessly in courts, legislatures, and communities to defend and preserve the Constitution's promise of liberty for everyone in our country." You can follow the fundraiser progress on our ACLU page. I'm leaving this thread open for replies, but please keep it civil. We'd prefer discussion not get too hostile. -------------------- Want a rotating avatar like mine? Check out my website: randimg!
Thanks to all of the people in this thread and this thread for the various avatars! |

The pure intent of this donation contribution is heart warming. I truly love what it says about the GPX+ administration and, seeing the donation progress thus far, what it says about the GPX+ members as well. I don't know if I'll be in a position to donate because of the pay roll decrease (with my husband being on disability at the moment), but I want to thank those in a position to donate and that do. It says a lot about your character; one of a positive nature. I'm sure many of us would like to donate and, if we are able, more power to the people and kudos to us all.
I love this website because it isn't just a gaming pit stop or forum to talk about Pokemon. We can talk about life and the road bumps we have to get across and the extreme joys that we face in our daily lives. GPX+ puts the plus in gaming and reinforces the positive nature in strangers - bolstering the fact that there is still so many with the best of intentions out there. Thank you all. GPX+ -------------------- |

February is a great month to have a fundraising project going on, especially with valentine's right around the corner
I hope this can be done each year. -------------------- |

Things have reached over here in terms of.. people definitely not agreeing with things.
I'm not sure how much I'll be able to help out but I'm sure I'll be able to throw something in somewhere - every little helps. -------------------- Don't forget to love yourself.

I may not be able to donate THAT much, but I will definitely see if I can at least donate $5! I am very glad to see something like this, and I would be thrilled to help out, even if it only is a little bit.
-------------------- “New year, new me,” I say, laughing to my friends. Suddenly, I throw my arms out, golden light erupting from my hands and face. I scream in agony as every single cell in my body is rewritten, atom by atom. Abruptly, the light show ends and I drop my arms, coughing out a golden trail of residual energy. I am completely made new.

I love, love, LOVE this. Here's hoping I get a more sustainable income; if I do I'll definitely have to get some credits!

I think this is a wonderful idea, and definitely one that is needed at the time. I just happened to come into a little extra money, so I will be happy to help with this cause!
