I received an email from a friend. I was shocked in reading the contents. The Family readiness Group of the North Carolina National Guard, are trying to compose Christmas packages for our soldiers. They were asked for one special gift they would like to have. Their answer was a Wii System and some games for the one TV they have for 150 soldiers in each unit Remember only one Wii system was requested. A post was posted by Victoria Felicio to Nintendo@noa.nintendo.com at 19:02:54000 10/22/2007. This was their reply:

Hello Victoria,
Thank you for contacting Nintendo with a donation request for the North Carolina National Guard unit you are building holiday packages for.
I want to let you know that although your request is worthwhile, we will be unable to provide you with a donation of a Wii system. Because we receive many more solicitations than we can accommodate, we generally direct our contributions to large organizations such as the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Starlight Starbright Children’s Foundation, Untied Way, and Boys & Girls Clubs, Nintendo is able to provide assistance and stay involved with our community.
Thank you for thinking of Nintendo.
Sincerely,
Nintendo Of America Inc.

Please tell me how you feel about their response, and I’m sure you all have someone serving in this war in Iraq. Me personally had brought a system for my grandson for Christmas, as of today I returned it. Our soldiers lives are nothing to this Company that makes billions from these soldiers families!
