CoasterMyths79 Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 This is also my first time doing a fundraising event! I have been blessed with donations and have raised $160. I hope that I can see who the families are that will be blessed with the money people have raised for this event! 4 Quote
APE Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 On Twitter it was said that Kings Island is approaching 30k raised for Scream for a Kid Again, but on the event website it says 10k. What am I missing here? 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Corporate contributions, which, I believe, do not appear on that website. Quote
APE Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 It would be cool to see those show as well. Quote
Guest KingsIslandPR Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 It would be cool to see those show as well. The corporate contributions are listed on our website on the event page. Quote
APE Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Okay, thank you. So how does it work for the corporate donations? Does each company get one seat or multiple? I'm just curious. Quote
jdf21972 Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 such a great cause! Cannot wait to see the grand total. Thank you KI for this awesome gesture! Quote
APE Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Im enjoying the amount I've raised. \m/ Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2 Quote
CoasterMyths79 Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Today my fundraising ends with a total of $200. Thanks everyone! Quote
APE Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I thought it didn't end until a week before the event? Quote
CoasterMyths79 Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 Yeah, I figured that out a little while after I posted this lol! Time to get back to raising! Quote
Guest KingsIslandPR Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Fundraising for Scream for A Kid Again surpasses $30,000. 6 Quote
CoasterMyths79 Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 Wow, its amazing to think that we are helping people at the Greater Cincinnati chapter of A Kid Again AND that we also raised over $30,000! Good job guys! Also thanks for sharing this Don! 3 Quote
APE Posted March 15, 2014 Posted March 15, 2014 There has been a lot going on over the last week. A pretty big jump in money raised just on the First Giving page. Quote
UnrealNightmare Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 Yeah I need to step up my fundraising game. I've been stuck at $205 for a week now. 2 Quote
SaraKIMktg Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Let's have a KIC team. I want to be well represented there. A Kid Again is very near and dear to me. Less than 30 days to go for this event, great to see the support from KIC. 3 Quote
DonHelbig Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 We have just surpassed the $50,000 mark in money raised for this event! It's not too late to begin fundraising to take part in this fun, memorable and worthwhile event. 19 Quote
APE Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 I need to step up my game with a few weeks left. $188 shy of my goal. 1 Quote
UnrealNightmare Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 I'm $1,795 away from my goal. I think I set the bar for myself too high. 6 Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Got my account created last night. I would love any donations if anyone is able! Thanks in advance. KIC will be well represented at this event! https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/bradperdue/screamforakidagain 9 Quote
RailRider Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Today is My Birthday and I figured rather than celebrate about me, why not join this cause and see what I can raise between now and the 13th. Please support my campaign if you can. https://www.firstgiving.com/fundraiser/ScottNeff/screamforakidagain 10 Quote
DonHelbig Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Despite enduring bone cancer, a child named Gabriel that you'll hear more about this summer, and his family enjoyed laughter, joy and healing times at Kings Island before losing his battle at age 6. Gabriel was A Kid Again at Kings Island. It was his favorite place on earth. The fundraising that you do to participate or the donations that you make to someone raising funds for the "Scream for A Kid Again" event will enable literally HUNDREDS of local children like Gabriel and his family to enjoy fun-filled events throughout the year. Each time one of the children with life-threatening illness and their families attend an adventure like Kings Island, or perhaps the ZOO, a Reds of Cyclones game, they're giving illness a giant time out! For those that participate in this event, you're going to remember this night for a long, long time and what it meant to Scream for A Kid Again. 28 Quote
UnrealNightmare Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Awesome! Thanks for the heart whelming story Don! 4 Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 If you are unsure about your day at one of these events, I can attest to attending the previous Coasting for Kids events at KI. Families have show up and tell their story during our lunch break, and make it all worth the time raising money and asking for donations! It is a worthwhile cause, the kids and parents appreciate it, and you make some of the best memories and friends with people who love coasters just like you! KI does a great job of accommodating all the participants. I would encourage anyone who is interested in joining this event to do so. 8 Quote
RailRider Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 Been a great day fundraising today. Was curious if you are allowed to bring any non riders with you in to the event or the park? Quote
SaraKIMktg Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Been a great day fundraising today. Was curious if you are allowed to bring any non riders with you in to the event or the park? Only those who have reached the fundraising minimum will be able to enter the park for this event. 2 Quote
APE Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 That is good to know I had been wondering that myself as I am taking part but me wife isn't she had wanted to know if she could be there to watch. Thank you. Quote
RailRider Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 Thanks for the response. Will leave the wife and kido back at the hotel for the evening... Hahaha, just realized how bad that sounds after I typed it. 6 Quote
