Post Thank you for the reminder!

I had forgotten all about that.

Sounds like a good time for me to see if I have that many points and donate them if I do.

Edit: Done deed. My little 200 points may not be much but if enough of us donate, it could add up.

Do you know how much they actually amount to? I donated 400 points. Like you said, every little bit helps!

Talking Donate until it Hurts

I think those point are worth about one cent each, but every little bit helps. Also, Red Cross can receive on-line or over the phone donations.

Thumbs up

So glad this option was brought up!

1) Having "too much month at the end of the money" syndrome.
2) Can't donate blood since my veins are too small for their needles. (No joke! I tried to give blood a few years ago at a Red Cross Bloodmobile and they turned me away. Can't even donate plasma for $$$! lol)

So off I go to cough up some MyPoints!

I also donated 200 points. Wish very much I would have had more points- but recently cashed in on something else.

Big grin Bump!

Wanted to keep this bumped in case anyone missed it or to remind those of us who may have another 200 points soon.

Letter from MyPoints

From the letter I received today:

We would like to thank all of the MyPoints members who have donated Points to the American Red Cross service effort. Your response has been overwhelmingly generous. Over a two-day period the MyPoints member donations to the Red Cross have exceeded $150,000.
