Help donate Firefly DVDs to the troops.
We are soliciting monetary donations in order to purchase copies of the Firefly DVD’s for our troops. This effort accomplishes many goals that we can all agree are worthwhile:
1. It will provide entertainment for our soldiers.
2. It will increase sales of the Firefly DVD’s.
3. It will increase the fan base, once the recipients see said DVD’s!
4. It will give us an opportunity to generate more press for Firefly.
I have to imagine that these would be extremely popular, for a whole variety of reasons (sex, violence, adventure, quotability, all things highly prized by the troops). And, for those with a subversive bent (you know who you are), it might even instill a sense of rebellion against Uncaring Nassssty Authorities amongst our troops.
The initial campaign goal is to raise enough funds to purchase 120 copies of the DVD’s for dispersal to all USO centers worldwide. Once enough money is raised to accomplish this we can focus on other groups, such as Army personnel stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan, aboard Navy ships, etc.
The donation drive is open through 30 January.

That’s a great idea. I can’t think of a better show to send those men and women slogging it out in the desert.
