The holidays are quickly approaching and families need assistance.
Legendary Darkwing Duck and Chip n’ Dale Rescue Rangers creator, Tad Stones, has created some original artwork that he is auctioning off for charity. Tad Stones would be on our Mount Rushmore of Disney Afternoon Legends right next to Jim Cummings. This is an excellent opportunity to give money to help kids have a Holiday meal, and also pick up some excellent artwork from Tad Stones.
About the Charity
Combat Radio Christmas Eight
Every year, Combat Radio buses in ‘Polar Express style’ about 400 children (and their families) from Social Services for what is essentially Christmas. The event is an all you can eat, first class, brunch at Salt Creek Grille in Valencia with presents, about 80 characters (from Disney to Star Wars to The Avengers) Entertainment, LIVE Broadcast and…..a visit from Santa Claus! This year we plan to bring Christmas to 600 children (including a second event, the following Saturday AT the Social Service center) and we need your help to do it. The following donations (which are tax-deductible) go to charter busses (we need 12 busses) presents (on average 15.00 ea.) insurance, food and tech costs. To encourage some help we’ve offered the following (take a look at the last prizes below) hopefully, YOU will get involved and help us bring Christmas to families that could really use a little kindness…..
100% of the money from your bid, if you are the winning bidder, will go to Combat Radio Christmas Eight Go Fund Me account. Tad will notify you if you win, and you will donate to the Go Fund Me Fundraiser yourself from the link below after you have been notified.

I was the lucky bidder on the Double Darkwing art above. It felt great to donate to such a great cause to help make some children’s Christmas, but also I have some great new Tad Stones Darkwing Art to frame, wrap, and place under the tree for myself.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to help Darkwing save Christmas.
