I'm a UWO alumnus and would donate one if I was still up there. I'm sure someone from the area would help out with what sounds like a worthy cause. A pumpkin from 200 feet is always fun...

This is a website I use........ charitynavigator.org A search on their website turned up nothing about you!

I guess what gets me is you want two pumpkins...

Good luck with your drop.

Will you pay shipping?

Hi guys, thanks so much for your replies! We will pay shipping, and the funds are going towards two things: sending two volunteers to Africa for four months of the summer, and sending eight volunteers to a national conference on international development in Newfoundland.
bigbassman, we're actually not a charity, we're just a non-governmental volunteer organization. bjx2, do you have anything you could donate if we're willing to pay shipping?

Thanks very much

Ps. Although we're ultimately looking for two, one pumpkin would be really appreciated too. Thanks again.
