I have sold a couple of hundred of necklaces for charity in this program.

I have promoted this program in dozen of places, many Internet forums, bead groups art organizations, anyone that will...

Just give me your money.

This is what works. And so it's getting done.

Rather than my normal copy and paste dryness, I'm gonna lay out some hippie bullshit for you.

I need you to help me tend to some shitty times being had in Portland, Oregon.

I make beads. Some...
