They've already taken the time and resources to create the mech and set up the charity donation as well as make the video and the promotions so I think they've done their part. It's not like they didn't put any effort into this.

About goals on how much would be nice to reach, I don't know if it is possible, but I am hoping we can match the Breast Cancer charity drive done by the Fighting Game Community for EVO2013 or at least close to it!

I'll be getting my Sarah's Jenner on the 8th and I'll try to get a second one on my other account if my budget allows.

Well keep in mind that drive was from a ton of different games and this is just one. So if we reach that we've done a heck of a job. Still surprised that we've got almost 50K in two days

Doesn't hurt to have a high goal! If you fall short you still do much better than having a low goal set.

Just like when a two-year-old hands you a phone, you answer it: when a little girl who loved big, stompy robots gets sick and dies from cancer, you buy a big, stompy robot in her honor when the proceeds are going to charity. Period.

If you call yourself a mechwarrior or a human being, buy this mech. It's 10 lousy dollars. I don't care if you're a Jenner pilot or not. Do it!

[Gallowglas]

I'd like to challenge you other mechwarriors to put something similar to my signature blurb in your own so we can raise awareness and more money for this cause.

I'm not a very active forum user, but I just wanted to say this:

You rock, fellow Mechwarriors! (And you too, PGI!)

The daughter of a friend of mine was lost too last month, about the same age and for the same reasons.

It's great to see so many people caring so much.

Thank you!

From our household to her's bless you. 10$ was the least we could support with.

About broke my neck getting my credit card when I first read this. Our prayers are with Sarah's family.

The fact that you had no money till today tells me you have better things to spend the money on. The fact that you chose to donate anyway.........

My condolences to the family and friends of Sarah.

That picture made me cry again. Such a beautiful child. Such a tragedy.

[blood4blood]

My daughter's sixth birthday is today, and there are tears in my eyes as I type this out, thinking of what my life would be like if I lost her. It's pure horror. My condolences and deepest sympathies to Sarah's family.

Her presence will always be felt, she's a very precious soul that has opened a lot of our hearts and for that, she will live on through each and every one she's touched in life. In life, there's a beginning and an ending, but it could be possible that the ending is really just the beginning.
