I teach at an inter-city school in Orlando, Florida. I also sponsor the Sci Fi/ Gaming/ Amine Club. Here is my sad song.

This year within one mile of the school we have had, 2 students killed in accidental drive-by shootings, across from the school we have had a gang shoot out during baseball practices, and a number of snatch & grab robberies of student coming and going to and from school.

When I started the club three years age, I had 15 members and I ran it on my own. Last year I had 45 kids and 2 teacher, plus myself. With the help of DAVE School of Design we took 28 kid to Mega Con. the local comic convention. This year I have 75 kids and 5 teachers, including me. We are hoping to take 45 kid to Mega Con this year and we need your help.

It doesn't need to be much, but every little bit helps. Here is a link to our Gofundme page

That's very nice of you guys to do this. I don't know anything about the site, so what happens with the donations if you don't make your goal?

I have no desire to "poison the well" for this man and his cause BUT I listened to my heart instead of my head and got scammed out of the entire Hudson& Allen "Alamo" set. If I related the details one and all would be saying, "What was he thinking?" I wasn't thinking. It was "for the kids", "underprivileged kids", supposedly a young woman teacher struggling against a heartless system. Packing and shipping was a money pit and I never heard another word about it. "She" conned me big time. When all is silence and I start having doubts I noticed her name on the e-mail. It was a Porn Star's name. And the final e-mail with the porn star's name was to let me know I had been played for a fool. No fool like an old fool.Please, be very careful about this sort of thing.
