Project for Awesome 2010 (on abuse)

[hen10r]

Maddie, you're wonderful.

[francoise5]

Thanks for posting such a wonderful video for all of those people who have been abused, keep up the good work:)

[CottonWoolWorld]

i made my video on the same subject. DFTBA!

[MigdalaVered]

@CottonWoolWorld Awesome possum! I'll check it out! :)

[darkieschmuckie]

Thanks for making this video, I'd donated to refuge the other day and was hoping someone had a video I could post about this kind of charity <3 DFTBA

[MigdalaVered]

@darkieschmuckie You are awesome! :D

[lucythebookmonster]

Thats awesome :D it really saddens me when i see or hear if someone has been abused as a child. it makes me cry when i watch the adverts. so i just hope that like me, there will be others who donate some money or do the things which you just mentioned to fight this problem!

[MigdalaVered]

@lucythebookmonster Thanks for helping the cause! I like causes where you don't have to donate money. Being a friend is enough. Or giving belongings you no longer use. Or simply educating yourself. Good stuff. :)

[kinkat8891]

DFTBA!!!

[bandnerd29316]

[untappedinkwell]

Great video! Thanks so much for Posting!

DFTBA!

[MigdalaVered]

@untappedinkwell Thanks for commenting! :D

[SuperCatSara]

Awesome video. What am I doing? Listening and helping my friend. And a lot of people forget about the emotional abuse the children suffer. They're getting away from it though, and that's what I need for my friend. dftba <3

[MigdalaVered]

@SuperCatSara Lovely, lovely. Friends are wonderful. Thank you for being awesome! I hug you now.

[SuperCatSara]

@MigdalaVered :D virtual hugs are the BEST! :3 again, dftba :3

[haloeffectx]

DFTBA! Love the video, and completely agree about the facebook campaign.

[MigdalaVered]

@haloeffectx Thanks! DFTBA yourself! (though I'm sure you haven't this weekend.) :D

[mannlaura]

I really liked your video and agree with you so much! Thank you for posting!

[MigdalaVered]

@mannlaura Thanks for watching and commenting! :)

[kitkatqueen]

I agree with you so much! dftba!

[MigdalaVered]

@kitkatqueen Yay support! Thanks for being awesome. :)

[IAmANerdForYou]

P4A doesn't stand for project for awesome, it now stands for PENNY FOR AWESOME. Comment. Spam. Go.

[MigdalaVered]

@IAmANerdForYou I LOVE THAT! YES!

[dollhouseAli]

This was wonderful and very well put-together. You did a great job of showing that this isn't just about awareness, it's about doing something and actually making a difference, which is something I think we tend to forget, even if our hearts are in the right place. :) I'm also going to leave the comment I've been leaving all day:

<3<3<3

[MigdalaVered]

@dollhouseAli Gosh. Thank you. <3 to you too! :)

[VloggerQueen17]

The description was so, so true. Thank you for addressing the elephant in the room <33

DFTBA

[MigdalaVered]

@VloggerQueen17 It's what I do. lol And sadly, this elephant isn't puppy-sized. :/

[thathoopy]

DFTBA! Great video!

[MigdalaVered]

@thathoopy Thanks! I've seen you around on here. You're subbed to some lesser knowns that are my friends. Hi!

[thathoopy]

@MigdalaVered Oh, thats fantastic! Hi!

[missxrojas]

A brilliant video, really really brilliant. Absolutely up there in my favourites today. Shall be sure to tweet about it.

[MigdalaVered]

@missxrojas Jinkies! Thank you! :)

[rhps19]

This was a great video. I completely agree with your opinion on the Facebook campaign. Thank you for making this video for p4a!

[MigdalaVered]

@rhps19 Thanks! Glad you liked it. And yeah, supposedly it was a hoax? But... still. Enough people knew about it and didn't know it was a hoax... that it should have been... more... There should just... More needs to happen. I'm much more eloquent in the video. Disregard this. haha

[CHARmanderLIE]

This video should be featured. Very nice, and the description was very well written c:

Continue on, and DFTBA

[MigdalaVered]

@CHARmanderLIE Squee! You read the description? D'awwww. Thank you. Really, truly.

I hope they start promoting lesser known Tubers soon.

[LuliisAccount]

This is my favorite p4a video.. by far...

[MigdalaVered]

@LuliisAccount Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa... That. Is a huge compliment. And I thank you. (I'm assuming you've seen most of the videos today.)

[wordsofjed]

This video was really fantastic. Made me think. I'm gonna do what I can to help who I can.

DFTBA

[MigdalaVered]

@wordsofjed Excellent! The great thing is... Opening a door for someone with their arms full helps. Sure, it doesn't help the abuse cause. But it helps! And smiles help, too! :) Lots and lots of smiles.

[wordsofjed]

@MigdalaVered

Indeed!

:) :) :) :) <--Smiles!

Shall we declare ourselves friends? I'd sure like to.

[desertislanddream]

Great video. And a very important topic.

[MigdalaVered]

@desertislanddream Thanks! I think so too. I love that one doesn't have to donate to help. Just becoming educated on signs of abuse and how to prevent it/stop it is enough.

[iamthealterego]

This is one of the best P4A videos i've seen. I love it :)

[MigdalaVered]

@iamthealterego D'awwww. Thank you, my friend.

[rstephensonable]

Rock on with the good time CHARITY love!  Yay #DFTBA and #P4A - Keep the awesome coming!!!

SPREAD THE LOVE FOLKS! LIKE, COMMENT, FAVORITE!!! :-D

[MigdalaVered]

@rstephensonable WOOOO!

[JosieNoPussycats]

DFTBA

[MigdalaVered]

@JosieNoPussycats so dang fine to be alive...

[wordsofjed]

@MigdalaVered Until your Dorky Farting Turdface Brother Arrives.

[niminonono]

[MigdalaVered]

@niminonono :D

[raidonthestadiar]

[raidonthestadiar]

yes yes yes it's true

[MigdalaVered]

@raidonthestadiar indeed

[raidonthestadiar]

good good video yes

[MigdalaVered]

@raidonthestadiar nods

[TheRydog100]

I loved the box you made, , personally, don't know anyone whos been abused. But, I know of a charity who gives families recovering from abuse free therapy. I'll donate $5 to that.

[MigdalaVered]

@TheRydog100 You know me? I've been abused. There. :) "Just because it's happening on the Internet, Harry, doesn't mean it's not real." (@coralinehope) Also, most of my friends don't know about my past. (Until this video...) So. Maybe you have a friend embarrassed by the skeletons?

Also, excellent! I've had help from resources like that. On behalf of the people benefiting, thank you.

[lauradoestheastro]

First P4A video I've watched this year! Great job! :D

[MigdalaVered]

@lauradoestheastro Woo! I've popped several cherries today. Thanks! Also, HAPPY SPAMMING! :)

[TheCapnamerica]

agalkuand!! :) :) :) :) :)

[MigdalaVered]

@TheCapnamerica You have GOT to be Melanie/Steven with a user name like that. Thanks! I love you! :)

Comment as much as you want!

[MigdalaVered]

@TheCapnamerica Also, multiple smilies and "agalkuand" gave you away. *giggles*

[MigdalaVered]

@lionfishoctopus Thanks! You're great!

[pleasantlyawkward]

I feel the same way about 'slack-tivism' :) (Good word for it!) DFTBA

[MigdalaVered]

@pleasantlyawkward I know! I wish I'd come up with that word myself. The only time one can be a slacktivist is when they're being an Andrew Slacktivist for the HPA, or following his lead.

[bandgirlcg]

You are totally great Maddie! Awesome video!

[MigdalaVered]

@bandgirlcg Thanks! You're great, too! *goes to watch your video* :)

[coralinehope]

Hoorah for p4a! And for charity! And for lovely videos like this one! And for Madeline!

[MigdalaVered]

@coralinehope Hip hip! HOORAY! ^.^

[BigGuyZee]

Oh BTW just letting you know I did a P4A video too so feel free to watch. You commented on my p4a video last year. You spotted my Natalie Tran reference! ^__^

[MigdalaVered]

@BigGuyZee GASP! I REMEMBER THAT! Very vaguely, because that was at the beginning of the day, I do believe. I wonder if we'll remember this next year! haha

[BigGuyZee]

@MigdalaVered Aww I'm glad you remembered (I made the same reference in this year's video too lol). With those cute xmas boxes I'm sure we will remember. <3 :-)

[elizziebooks]

awesome mcawesomeeee

[MigdalaVered]

@elizziebooks That's my birth name. How did you find out?

[elizziebooks]

@MigdalaVered Your mom told me! :P

[MigdalaVered]

@elizziebooks Gasp! Did you guys eat all da cakes together?

[elizziebooks]

@MigdalaVered Noooooooo.

And by "no" i mean "yesssssss!"

[Pulpulpullie]

I'd say DFTBA, but after watching this video I feel like I don't have to.. :)

[MigdalaVered]

@Pulpulpullie :D I try.

[Pulpulpullie]

[Pulpulpullie]

[NessaIrene0206]

Made my morning. You're awesome.

:)

[MigdalaVered]

@NessaIrene0206 Naw, YOU'RE awesome. :)

[princeword]

Thank you for being awesome. The thing I love about this project is both that I get to meet so many new awesome people and that I get exposed to all these (for me) new organizations.

Cheers

/Martin

[MigdalaVered]

@princeword Yessir! You're pretty filled with spiff, too. :)

Also, whoa you're from Sweden? Neato!

[BigGuyZee]

Brilliant video, one of my faves so far. Liking that homemade box present thing BTW!

DFTBA! :-D

[MigdalaVered]

@BigGuyZee Awesome. I wonder if you're still saying that after 3 hours and more videos have been uploaded.

THE BOX IS AMAZING! I made 2 or 3! Very handy! :)

[bereckless]

powerful and inspiring without being preachy or condemning. beautifully done, M.
