EDITED: Want an update on our total so far? Click here. Â
I can’t even tell y’all how excited I am about today – and how much I want for us to just bless the socks off of Kelli and her family (if you have absolutely no idea what I’m talking about, click here).
So, click on the “make a donation” button at the bottom of this post to make a contribution. My only request is that $1.50 be the minimum – but you may certainly donate any amount you wish. You do not need a PayPal account in order to give; Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover are also accepted. The PayPal account where you’ll be donating is already linked to Kelli’s bank account so that she’ll be able to access what she needs as she needs it.
Email me if you have any questions or problems…I’ll be posting some updates on our progress throughout the day.
Also, remember that Susie at Bluebird Blogs will be donating 20% of all blog design orders between now and January 21st to the For Kelli fund. Be sure to stop by Susie’s place if you want a fresh, fun look for your corner of Blogland.
If it’s not a good time for you to donate money – or if you simply don’t feel led to give – I know that Kelli and her family would be forever thankful for your prayers.
One more thing: if you have donated, prayed or linked to this effort, please leave a comment that says, simply, “I’m in!” When Kelli gets online later today, I think it would be awesome if she could see a visible representation of all the people who have given their money, their prayers, or their blog space for her cause. I hope it’ll be a tremendous encouragement to her and her family.
Many thanks in advance, everybody.
Your transaction will be secure.
A family will be blessed.
And, above all else, God will be glorified.
I’m in!
I’m in – and my donation is in honor of a very dear friend of mine with only one kidney.

I’m in! It means so much to be able to do something for our sweet friend. Thank you for making this happen, Boomama. Praise the Lord for His goodness!
Better late than never… I’m in and I’m just weepy in a good way, thinking about the smile on God’s face right now and his nodding of his head, thinking “They finally get it…”
God bless you Kelli and family, and my prayers for you aren’t stopping after tonight. The same God who made the stars to shine is the same God who can provide a new kidney for you. Think BIG!
Hi Kelli,
I’m fairly new to your blog and am inspired by your optimism. As the Aunt of an organ transplant patient, my heart is with you. I’m praying for you as you wait for God to bring you your new liver so you can spend many more years with your family! God Be With You every step of the way! I’m in!
I’m in and I am so totally loving blogland!
Hi Kelli,
I’m fairly new to your blog and am inspired by your optimism. As the Aunt of a recent organ transplant patient, my heart is with you. I’m praying for you as you wait for God to bring you your new kidney so you can spend many more years with your family! God Be With You every step of the way! I’M IN! (And thanks Boomama; this was so sweet!)

I’m in! What a blessing to read these comments! Praise the Lord! All I can think of, and have been tearfully humming it this evening, is
“Blest be the tie that binds
Our hearts in Christian love;
The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above.”
AMEN!
Proud of your leadership for such a worthy project. God has certainly blessed the efforts of all.
I am in!
God bless you Kelli! {{{hugs}}}
I have been out all day, and I almost forgot to do this! Taken care of now…
This wonderful total makes me want to cry, even though I don’t even know Kelli. I am SO thrilled for her. I could only afford a tiny amount, but it just goes to show what so many can do when we all pull together!
Praying for her and her family…
My dh did the submitting for me. We’re in because we were both blessed by both of you.
Lifting up prayers.
I’m in. I hope and pray all goes well for Kelli.
I’m in!

S., have you ever even SEEN this many comments? This whole thing has me speechless. Wow. I bet Kelli’s in some serious shock herself! :)
Is that a comment from your Daddy? If the total didn’t make me cry, that did for sure.
I’m in! I will be praying for Kelli, too!
I’m in! Thanks Boomama, for heading this up!!

Hi. I’m in too – I don’t even know how I found your blog. I just read it today for the very first time. But I’ve linked to it on my blog so hopefully you might get some Brits visiting.
I’m in with money and prayer.

Interestingly, PayPal just called me to be certain that my donation was not a scam…don’t know how it needs to be set so it doesn’t look like a scam, but it might pay to check.
Thanks for doing this!
Hey, don’t leave me out! I’m in! Sending up a heap of prayer coverage.
i’m in. how awesome that we can come together, not knowing each other, but joined in Spirit to love on each other! I think Jesus would be proud of his kids “being the body”. thanks boomama, AND BLESSINGS KELLI!
Done! Sorry it’s so late…but what an awesome thing to read and for you to do! Lots of Love to you, Kelli and her family.
In Him, T-Lo
I’m in…
I’m in! Praying for you dear, Kelli!
Saw link on wife’s website. I’d been looking for a way to give to an individual. Also prayed for you while sending gift. You’ll be OK. Stay faithful.–Jim & Barbara
Here from Shannon’s blog – I’m in too. Best wishes to Kelli, and thank you for doing this!
I’m in! God bless this ministry to Kelli and her family!
I have prayed for Kelli, but I hadn’t even mentioned the contributions to my husband because I just didn’t figure he would at all go for sending contributions to someone we didn’t know over the Internet. But he read the links from my blog back here and at Kelli’s site and made a contribution for us. So I am happy to be able to say I am in from that standpoint as well.
I came here through there is a season. She had a button on her blog for Kelli.
I donated and then checked the amount raised so far. Bless your heart for doing this. God works through us all.
Great Blog!
I’m in, will be keeping you in my heart and prayers Kelli
hugs to you.
Here via BlogHer – I’m in! – good luck and God Bless.
I’m in. Sorry it took me so long to arrive.
Kelli, I am praying for you and your family.
BooMama, thanks for giving us the opprotunity to share in the joy.
