I'd also fully support sponsoring a single family, if it were a case where Luke, or someone else local could present a check, either directly, or through a known entity (church, foundation, etc). The idea being this $2,000 (or whatever the check is for) is meant for this particular thing (heat, food, rent) over the next 12 months, something to make one family know their next year will be made a bit easier each month. I'm sure one of us knows a local family whom could greatly benefit from this and could vouch that the money would be of great import and use (and not spent on lotto tickets and booze).

Also, a slight bit off-topic - I was probably in the minority, but the link-up w/gamegavel was not my thing. My preference would be that it remained fully on racket this year.

FWIW, I plan to donate items and bid on items as well, provided jmbarnes101 has a mystery box.
I don't provide mystery boxes for the auction but feel free to bid on the other great things people make available.

Were we supposed to already have donated items?

Not yet. This auction will run a bit longer than usual and all I'll release a statement on 12/1/2012 that hopefully will answer any and all questions.
