There are many ways to donate, but I’d like to link to the efforts of the CheapAssGamer site users, because that’s where I heard about it, and last year CheapAssGamers raised more than $27,000 for the cause, which is pretty darn cool. Also cool: Donors are entered in a raffle for all kinds of gaming prizes, including gift cards, DS games and Nintendo DS consoles! The fundraiser goes through Dec. 30. (Actually, the fund raising is ongoing; the raffle ends the 30th.)
