dontate to the children's miracle network on behalf of knight rider online and knight rider festival

When thousands of Knight Rider fans descend upon Las Vegas this March, the opportunity to make a difference in peoples lives is too hard to ignore. Since the event itself is free, donations will be accepted on behalf of the Children's Miracle Network.

Together with the Knight Rider Festival, we here at Knight Rider Online will be spearheading a community wide effort to pool donations for this cause. Our goal will be to present to the Children's Miracle Network with a check containing the efforts of our members at the VIP party at the Knight Rider Festival. This will take place in front of countless distinguished guests and fans.

The Children's Miracle Network (CMN) is an international non-profit organization that raises funds for Children's hospitals, medical research and community awareness of children's health issues. The organization, founded in 1983 by the Osmond family and John Schneider, is headquartered in Salt Lake City, Utah. To date, the Children's Miracle Network claims to have raised over US$3.2 billion which is distributed directly to a network of 170 hospitals. [source]
