When I first saw the target of 3000 plus dollars, To be frank I was quite apprehensive not because we are not compassionate but because I genuinely thought, we may be blogging together but supporting a great event like “FAHC-Subscribe to Smiles fund-drive” will really take its time. But to my surpise each and everyone of us felt that we had to do something,we all were determined to make a positive difference to the world we live in. I believe that we are helping for a better tomorrow and to give a new start to those wonderful amazing children.

Many many thanks to the fellow bloggers and friends, who positively believed and readily donated and offered amazing prizes.We all did it together and each and everyone deserve a small pat on the shoulder, well done everyone.

Now to the Raffle Winners:
