    Default Habbox Charity!

    I would like to suggest that Habbox link themselves with a charity permanently. I do have a special one in mind, http://www.make-a-wish.org.uk/ as it's a very worthwhile one, although I'm sure other members may suggest another.

    I would be more than happy to send a £1 or similar each month to Habbox, to help maintain the site and after costs any profits to go to the Make A Wish Foundation.

    I personally expect nothing in return, but donators could have their names announced over the radio, the forum etc etc.

    This is a very good idea if habbox had a permanent charity it supported with all profits why not keep VIP? Send sulake the incomings and outgoings each month to prove their is no profit made?

    If then sulake tried to stop VIP it would be costing those kids and the charity imagine their bad publicity.

    They must think habbox is making a profit and just jealous but this way it would be proved they are not and any negative response by them would show that all along they dont care about anything but their own selfish profits.

    I absolutely love the charity you have suggested. It benefits pretty much everyone with a severe illness rather than going into specifics. It's a great idea, and I'm very much in favour of it

    I sent a PM to Nvrspk4 a couple of days ago about this as it came up in a discussion earlier that day, he thought I was on about just using it to get around VIP and then disappeared so not sure if he's seen my better explained reply

    And yes, the idea was that server costs are maintained and then ALL surplus goes to charity - I'm fairly sure that people would be more likely to donate if it was charitable.

    Let's keep this separate from the VIP issue though, it'll only complicate matters and I'd like to get this under way without that being used as an argument not to.

    I completely agree with the idea at hand. It's a very worthy and charitable thing to do which would allow lots of people to benefit from.

    Also, with the issue of Habbox VIP, enough money goes to Habbox to cover the costs and the rest goes to chairty, therefore the Users are helping charity but also in some way, benefiting from it!

    I've known about this fantastic organisation for a long time. It's a very worthy charity.

    Welcome to Make-A-Wish Foundation® UK

    Make-A-Wish grants magical wishes to children and young people fighting life-threatening illnesses.
    Make-A-Wish was founded in the UK in June 1986 and, since then, we have granted over 5,000 wishes. At any given time, over 20,000 children in the UK are living with life-threatening conditions and our aim is to grant 21 wishes a week by the year 2010. Whether a wish is to be a princess or a policeman for a day, own the latest computer equipment, meet a favourite celebrity or just enjoy some special time away from home with their family, a wish come true brings so much to a child's life and provides memories for the family that last a lifetime.

    Even the smallest donation goes a long way at Make-A-Wish. Just £5 will go towards a disposable camera and film processing to capture the magic of the wish child's special day, giving them and their families something to hold onto whatever the future brings. Twenty five pounds could be spent on a designer dress to help turn one of our wish children into a magical princess for a day! Everything you donate to Make-A-Wish is used to continue our vital work.
