I would like opinions/thoughts/suggestions on fundraising ideas to help generate money for the Muller's.

Dara, how much money is needed? $100? $1000? $10,000? $100,000?

The private room charge is 619 Nfl per day, paid in up-front deposits of 2,500 Nfl. As of today (18 days), that amounts to 11,142 Nfl (~ $6,130 USD). With the uncertainty of the time before a bed becomes available in rehab, that could easily triple (if we could manage to keep him in a private room).

Does Ellen sell her pictures? She has beautiful pictures. Some of which I believe some people would really like to buy in prints or to buy as electronic files that they could print themselves. I'd rather buy pictures, with commentary if possible. I would like to frame a couple to hang in my home. Rather than a calendar. I don't know if I could afford it, would depend on the price.

Dara, I just googled you to find your art. Very nice! I would think your art could cetainly raise money in a fund raiser. It is very nice of you. I have to wait til pay day (mid Feb - I only get paid once a month and the economy is tight right now). But I do want to contribute at that time.

I know that Gaia does prints on Canvas. If we can find someone who can put these prints on a frame (like a painters canvas) then I'm sure I can find people who are willing to pay good money for those prints. Maybe I can even get someone at the cruise ship market to put them in their stand? Now of course it would help if anybody knows someone at Gaia and could get them to sponsor this thing by doing the prints for free??? I'm willing to put in my time.

Bas, When I invoked "The Force" to give Erwin strength and protection, I didn't expect an appearance from OB1 :-) Pleased to make your aquaintance - this has got to be a good sign!
