MaryAnn wearing a red nose near the Time Warner Center

I’m wearing my Red Nose Day red nose all over NYC, making myself look like a fool in public, to raise money to fight poverty all over the world. And here I am still in Columbus Circle near the new Time Warner Center (that’s the two-pronged skyscraper that was destroyed by the creature in Cloverfield last year).

If everyone who stops by this site on only a single day donated a single lousy stinkin’ pound, I’d be over my donation goal of £5,000 in just that one day.

You don’t have to be in the U.K. to give money, and you don’t have to give a lot: even one pound will make a difference.
