Hi Guys:

I recently donated a full size Multicade video game to a place near me that is a day center for mentally handicapped young men and women. My daughter volunteers there, reading with them, etc.

I just received a call from the manager of the center, to let me know that the machine has absolutely changed their lives! Apart from their normal activities, they all crowd around the machine, patiently waiting for their turn to play and get very excited and cheer on the other players, also.

The warm, fuzzy feeling I got when he told me all of this, cannot be described!

Sometimes we go about our busy daily lives without giving much thought to the plight of others, so I thought I would post this to see if others would consider donating a video game or pinball machine to their favorite cause.

I do understand that many can't afford to donate like this but, for those who can, I promise that the smiles you will bring to the faces of those less fortunate, will be all the reward you could wish for.

Regards,

Roger

Very nice and very generous of you.

My idea was to donate the actual machine for themselves to use, rather than to auction off to raise funds.

They all need extra funds, of course, but I wanted the mentally handicapped residents to enjoy all the fun that a vid or pinball can provide and, by so doing, brighten up their day and give them something to look forward to.

Great stories and memories guys.

What many don't realize is that, when you give, you often get back much more, in return.

If someone really can't afford to give then, obviously, that's a different story.
