I'll come back to RAoP and give away 10 pizzas to hungry Redditors. Details inside.

So here's my proposal. Please read this [X-post from r/secretsanta](http://www.reddit.com/r/secretsanta/comments/n37da/i_have_a_favor_to_ask_of_all_you_secret_santas/), and spread the word via FB, Twitter, upvotes, etc. If my friend can meet her fundraising goal before xmas, I'll come back to RAoP and give away 10 pizzas.

ORIGINAL POST:

This may not be the right subreddit for this, but since we are all here to share a little joy this holiday season, I thought I'd make a humble request of this awesome reddit community.

I have been racking my brain trying to think of a xmas gift this year for a very dear friend of mine. Today, she posted on FB about her fundraising efforts for the March of Dimes, and I got an idea.

She and her family have participated in the March for Babies walk every year since losing their 12-day-old baby daughter Tera back in 2001 due to a congenital heart defect. Her FB post mentioned that any donations through the end of the year will be matched, effectively doubling the donation.

I thought it would be awesome if a bunch of random redditors started donating to her March for Babies team out of the blue. She would be dumbfounded. Her fundraising goal is $500, and if she could meet that goal before XMAS, it would BLOW HER MIND!

So please, all you wonderful secret santas out there -- how about taking on one more giftee for any donation amount at all? I'll pledge that if she reaches her $500 goal before Dec. 25, I'll donate an additional $200 myself.

So thank you all for reading this. If you want to read up more on the charity, you can go to the March for Babies web site. You can donate to my friend's team, Team Tera, on her team's donation web page.

THANK YOU!!

TL;DR - As a gift to a friend, I'm trying to raise money for her March for Babies fundraising team. I'm hoping awesome secret santas such as yourselves might want to help. :-)

GOAL MET!!!! Thank you to everyone who made donations and spread the word, it truly is appreciated!

As promised, I donated $200 more, and now I'll get started on giving away some pizzas!

And now, down to the important business of donating some pizzas to some hungry Redditors! I've already given 1 pizza away. So that leaves 9 more.

See my new RAOP post about giving away the first 3 of those 9 pizzas today!

Thanks again, Reddit. You guys are awesome. :-D
