I'm not gonna lie - seeing the total donated at $300,606 got me a little choked up. Absolutely fantastic, Pat - you are an inspiration to us all. I _almost_ forgive you for ruining my reading-productivity in 2011 by publishing a book so good that everything else paled in comparison.

Did I do something wrong? Feel very good about donating though :D I just donated (last minute I know) and was just wondering, since I didn’t sign in or anything I just clicked donate and did it via paypal, how do you know who donated what and how would you get in touch with someone?

Pat, I know you wanted us to enter additional info after we donate, and I don't want to be the one to ruin your warm fuzzy about the whole charity. After I donated by Paypal, the site crashed and I was unable to enter any additional info. I have been unable to get back to that page. Is there somewhere that I can enter what additional info you need? (sorry, sorry, sorry...) I have a slight problem.

My family donated this year for the first time, and I'm honored to be a part of this. Way to go, everyone. Pat - is the total listed on the Heifer site ($300K+) inclusive of the 50% match? Or is that pre-match (making the effective total north of $450K)? Also - I know that when Worldbuilders first got started, you were personally doing the matching. Not that it's any of my business, but is the entire 50% match coming from you, or have you enlisted other notable notables to assist? $301,591 as I write…unbelievable.

I'm not in a huge rush.... I can only imagine how hectic your next few weeks will be with the shipping and sending and writing and oh so very much sleeping after. I just thought it would be really cool to see how things are growing each year. :-) Thanks! I’m not in a huge rush….
