I would be happy to sponsor 2 posters here on DU.My only condition is that you be active in the message boards.Please,post here-other DU members will probably be glad to help as well.It's critical that we support each other and the board right now.

1. I don't need a star, but this needs a kick. I wish I could emulate your
generosity!

2. Be very careful who you give a star to.
Some of the deep cover moles from Those Other Boards obtain their stars during pledge drives by asking people like you for them.

However, you're a gem for offering to help folks like this!

13. Thank you. I had to beg the
gas company today not to shut us off in the middle of a blizzard.

Sometimes, life sucks.

7. This is very generous of you!
I hate to be a downer, but feel I should caution you of those that may seek membership solely on the grounds of looking more like the rest of us--if you know what I mean.

You may want to be careful in that sense. After the elections, we had unveilings of members that we knew and had grown to trust--some (if not all) had membership status stars.

:shrug:

10. I didn't know you needed a sponsor
Or do you just need a sponsor to get a yellow star without contributing?

19. I wasn't able to give much
In fact it was a very small amount. But I gave and felt better for it.
