    In memory of Mistafopa.

    Hey guys, on April 20th, there's a walkathon at my school called Relay for Life. The purpose is to raise money for cancer research and treatment, and support those who have been affected.

    I don't want to sound like the "Christian Children's Fund" guy or anything, but I was thinking it might be nice if we raised some money in Mistafopa's name. The anniversary of his death is in three days (April 10th), and his birthday is on April 13th.

    Fopa was, no doubt, one of the smartest and well-liked people here. He led the debate forum and was a very socially-conscious guy. I feel like this is a cause he would get behind, even prior to his disease.

    If you're interested in helping make an investment in cancer research, or just want to honor Fopa or someone else you've lost, you can contribute here:

    The online donation method is quick and simple, but if you'd prefer to pay by check, that can also be arranged (send me a message). Nobody has to do this obviously, but if you want to, any contribution is helpful.

    I think this is a wonderful way to honor his memory and also raise money to fight cancer in all its forms.

    I will contribute once I pay my taxes and bills.

    This is your team, correct? I would like to send money so you can set up a luminaria for him, too.

        Thanks a lot, Nix. Yeah, that's my team. According to an email I received from the organizer, "Luminaria bags can be decorated at a suggested donation of $10 per bag". If you want me to send a bag to you so you can decorate it, I can do that. Otherwise I can do whatever you want with it.

        Wha- Minnesota?!

        Hey, if you want to, join the team! It's at the U of Minnesota fieldhouse.

          I'd love to contribute, but money is too tight right now.

            I'll send you a donation for the luminaria. If you would just put his name on it and a note saying that he will be missed by all of us, that would be great. I'll probably just send you a money order or something on monday. If it's not there by the deadline I'll use my credit card.

              That is very touching Czechs. Mistafopa, is one of the people I regret not knowing the most. I still feel sad that I never will have the chance to associate with such a great guy. If I had the money, I would make a donation in a heart beat! This would probably make him proud.

                Don't feel bad. The luminaria can be from everyone at the pavilion.

                        My high school back home does Relay For Life, and my mom has participated in it for the last two years. Hopefully our family can make a difference, to the max.

                          We had a Relay for Life at my college on March 30. We managed to raise nearly $25,000 to aid the American Cancer Society in finding that cure. I'm also doing a group documentary on it, too.

                          Still, though, thanks for making this topic, man. You're doing a real samaritan's job, and I shall gladly give you positive rep for this. R.I.P, Steven.
