Here's the link to his post on it- he's set up a fundraising thing you can click on to donate in any amount- $1.00, $5.00, $25.00, $100, whatever. Just click on the thermometer thing and it'll take you to the page.

I know it's hard sometimes to find the money to buy complete care packages, etc., but this way any extra you can spare you can donate to help our recovering vets stay in touch and build up their computer skills. They certainly deserve it.
