Dear Friends,

I am in a tough position. I am two weeks away from leaving to see my girlfriend Stephanie in France and don't have enough money to survive while I am there. I already have my plane ticket and all the hostels and buses are booked. I just don't have the funds.

Can you help send me to Stephanie?

This sounds like I am begging for money. But I will make a promise to anyone who donates. Every dollar that is donated to me I will donate back to the Child's Play Charity starting as soon as I get back. By helping me you will be helping a child get the most from their childhood.

Child's Play is a charity that provides toys, games, and books to sick children in children's hospitals across the world.

All you have to do to help is send 5, 10, or whatever amount via the Donate button below. I will post the total donations from the time that I leave and then I will have a countdown with receipts proving that I have paid back my debt to Child's Play.

Help me Internet... you're my only hope.

And thank you, anything at all is enormously appreciated. If this wasn't a once in a lifetime opportunity I wouldn't be doing this at all.
