Re: Ryan Freel Memorial Donations

A great gesture by the best fan forum on the web. I'll be making my donation soon.

Re: Ryan Freel Memorial Donations

Again- don't be shy about sharing the fundraiser on social media or with friends or family!

We are doing great... I might have to make the goal an even loftier one, given the generosity that the members here at RedsZone are showing!



Again, a big THANK YOU to everyone!

Re: Ryan Freel Memorial Donations

It would be cool if this could get out to the local media, maybe someone can tweet it to Fay or the other beat guys on Twitter. I've had a blessed Christmas this year, and its time to pay it forward for a worthy cause. I've lost someone close to me to suicide and I always wondered what more I could have done. Maybe this will help someone who needs it.

Re: Ryan Freel Memorial Donations

I put it up on MLBTR's Facebook page, which will hopefully get some views. It helps get visibility if you 'like' the status update.

Re: Ryan Freel Memorial Donations

This is really taking off.

Looks like we may blow by the $1,000 goal pretty fast!

Nothing will make me happier than having to change the goal amount to something higher.



Great work, Reds Fans!
