| | J.K. Rowling helps find missing four-year-old A young girl by the name of Maddie has gone missing, and several celebrities are doing what they can to help her be recovered safely. J.K. Rowling is one of the donators to the "Find Maddie Fund," which is a cash reward to whomever helps rescue her. Quote:
After we kicked off the fund with £250,000, Harry Potter author JK ROWLING put up a staggering amount — the largest single donation. But she asked us not to reveal the exact figure.
To read more on the case and the people helping run it, click here.
Good luck to the case, and I really hope that this little girl is returned without a scratch.
Thanks to SSer Harry Potters biggest fan for the tip! |

I really think that this will bring whoever has her the courage to step forward, after all, over one and a half million pounds is a lot of money... Also a load of bikers are going to drive all theway across Portugal in an attempt to raise more money, and to find people who know of Maddie's whereabouts. What makes it even more depresing is that it was Maddie's fourth birthday yesterday, and her parents spent the whole day praying for her in the local church. Well done J.K

Go Jo! That's awesome, in a way. I just hope whoever kidnapped that kid is planning on giving her back...and isn't under the illusion that she is his/her child or something...

I really hope that they find the little girl soon (I think I once heard that today is her fourth birthday.) It's great that Jo is one of the helping celebrities.

| Nabs!Ama | | The Happy Hufflepuff Go Jo! That's a great fund..but what if the kid is kidnapped and the perpetrators are merely waiting for the cash so they can give the girl up for that?
Hmmm... |

Good for Jo - it's great that so many celebrities are helping by either donating or appealing for the little girl to be found.
You can do something too, by wearing a yellow ribbon!

Thats a lot of celebrities. Whats sad is when you look at some of the amount given, it looks tiny (especially to those who buys sports cars n such). But then you quickly think, "oh, its fine. Better to give something than nothing."
Hope they let her go, darn it! I think they deserve a public beating!
I think its all a conspiracy really. (pls don't clomp me -_-") Why such high profile for this one cute girl? There's more missing persons that can't afford such advertisement, poor families on the street, children used to beg for money, families who can't afford to get a computer, let alone pay for their child's hospital bills/ heart transplant - and so on... (don't don't clomp me i'm just bias when some who can, don't help more) Thought this was a real o_0 moment...

Hogwarts RPG Name: Hugo Jermaine Woods Seventh Year | avant-garde Mrs. Nick Jonas Jo is such a considerate person. She has all that money to do whatever she wants with it and she uses it for the good of others. She's got such an amazing character and I hope and pray that poor Maddie is found and returned safely to her parents.
Happy Birthday for yesterday, Maddie.

Maddie's story is heartbreaking, and yesterday was her 4th birthday.. I really hope shes found soon, but its great what these celebritys are doing. I heard Richard Branson and Wayne Rooney added to the fund.

Everyone's been talking about Maddie here =/ Poor girl... I hope they find her soon enough.
It's great to know that Jo's supporting this

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

First Year | GWFC/BWFC My <3 Thats really good of JKR, but i really can't help but feel why on earth was the girl left alone in the first place? I feel so sorry for the parents and for Madeline, but...why leave your child alone, in a foreign country...on a family holiday? I hope she comes back alive and well.
