Today, Child was reading a story about a cat, Patches, who needed an amputation.  The owner, Aspen, was selling lemonade to earn the money for the operation.  The operation was expected to cost $500, although it could have gone as high as $700. 
Child suggested I use the donation capabilities of http://ucpets.com, so we put a notice on the homepage that all donations during the next week would go to Patches.
It took about 4 hours.  Donations from KSL and Standard readers poured in, and we reached $700 and then some.  The power of good people in large numbers can't be underestimated!
