The Sweet little KISS story I may have helped out with.
Well, something brought me to Ellen Degeneres's show Facebook page today and I happened upon this:
So, here was this kid with this rare condition that he's lucky to have made it this far and he's a BIG KISS fan. KISS is coming to their area in July and the mom wanted to be able to go to a meet and greet with KISS ($1250 a person and so it had to at least be her and the kid for $2500). So, she began crowd funding effort.
Well, first thing I thought when I saw this is that I bet she is too busy taking care of the boy to know that Gene Simmons has a frequent Twitter presence (Paul Stanley is on too but not as much). So, I went and I tweeted a link to Gene Simmons, hoping he'd see it. I know we all love to think of Gene as a go for the money guy (and he is) but I also know he's big into charity. About five minutes later I got retweeted and he added "AWWW"
and that was it. But I thought he shared it with the whole gang, I bet he is going to do something for them.
Well, as you can see by the update in the crowd funding page
someone from KISS contacted them and they will be taken care of. This is the guy:
It is possible that he and only he is responsible for it but I tend to think that Gene Simmons got the ball rolling through a subordinate after seeing my tweet. I am glad though that they can worry about other things than scraping together the meet and greet money and just look forward to enjoying it in July.
