I guess it's like a donation thing to a program called Tiny Superheroes. It is for children with disabilities. They give the kids a cape when they meet the fundraising goal so they're a 'tiny superhero' or whatever. Her goal is $50 and she already has $15 and I'm going to donate as well.

My daughter has epilepsy and ataxic cerebral palsy if you were wondering what exactly her disability was.

Anyways, thanks for checking it out.

maybe the issue is that i asked that question without saying anything else? maybe i came off as being unsupportive or something? i can be pretty terrible about picking up on social cues / norms like that.

TC, i meant no disrespect whatsoever. i think it's awesome you're doing this for your daughter. i apologize for not saying that initially.

what does the fundraising go towards?

In their FAQ they have a "What does the money go towards?" section.

When you sponsor a cape, not only does this help cover the costs to send an official cape to the TinySuperhero, but this initial sponsorship also helps us cover a lifetimes worth of the Patches Program (which is a free patch and mission every month!) This also includes a free support group for the parents of the TinySuperhero. Finally, it includes the Angel Squad, if the worst were to happen. We support our TinySuperheroes even after they gain their wings. Read more about what the intial $50 sponsorship includes here: https://tinysuperheroes.com/50-for-a-lifetime-of-value/

yeah, its tough sometimes, man. i love her to death, but its like sometimes i wish she was 'like all the other kids,' you know? she's 7 and her speech is very delayed, she walks awkwardly and is not very coordinated due to the ataxic cerebral palsy and she has developmental delays.

haha yeah, she loves capes. she always says 'super powers save the day!' when shes wearing one.

The $150 goal was reached so the donations will sponsor 2 capes for two other children. CE can really be good sometimes.

One user made four posts in a row criticizing a user for asking what the money goes to, the other posts were quoting said user

Cant imagine actually getting mad that someone asked where the money is going.

Its no offense to you tc, and Im glad your daughters goal was met, but its a random link from a random internet guy. Its more than okay to be skeptical.

Edit: clarifying the deleted posts werent TC
