The following press release is for a domainer charity auction started by Craig Rowe, founder of WhyPark.com. With the help of Rick Latona and our community they will be auctioning off 50 domain names for charity during the second week of December. I think it’s a great idea and have personally donated a few names. During tough economic times I know it’s not easy, so do what you can, if not with a domain name or money, then please help promote the auction. Read below on how to get involved.
