Nerd Carolling Thanks You (final total)

So Nerd Carolling has come to an end. We were really happy with the results!

We had hoped to raise $100 from our two days of singing.

We made that in the first night.

After 5 nights of carolling, (3 more than we had planned thanks to an amazingly positive response) we raised...

$505.58 CAD

Sarah and I made the donation last night to Child's Play. People have also been giving online donations and telling us about them. So our real grand total is

$565.58 CAD

Thank you so much to the people who got excited and sent us around to a variety of people. You started a chain reaction that got us sent to so many different places in the city and got the word out further.

Thanks to Sarah and Emily for putting in their time and singing voices to making this possible.

A huge thank you to Jonathon Coulton (jonathancoulton.com) and The H.P. Lovecraft Historical Society (cthulhulives.org) who said we could use their music and basically made the whole thing possible. They have really great music, if you haven't done so already you should check them out.

This was a really fun project and we hope to be able to do this again next year!
Merry Christmas
