This was originally suggested by pepemint. Here is a thread that discusses it some.
http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=68499. There were several other threads as well, but admin said that we couldn't have an organized program, so as not to cast a bad image on yorkie talk.
This is what admin had to say about the idea:
"While we think this may be a great idea, we at YorkieTalk do not feel comfortable with someone outside of the YorkieTalk team handling anything that may involve money or gifts. We have experienced problems with non YorkieTalk Staff members handling YT events in the past, and we will not let it happen again.
For any events that are related to YorkieTalk or its members, we can not just allow anyone to start activities or events on our site that may damage our reputation or cause problems for our members. We are not going to allow an activity that may involve a YorkieTalk member not getting something while they do send something.
Since this idea was never approved by YorkieTalk directly, we are unable to let this thread and idea continue. We may look into this idea in the future if there is enough interest.
As always, you are always free to give any gifts or send any emails to anyone you would like, we have no problems whatsoever with that. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. Thank you.

They wanted to know if there was enough interest, so I thought that a poll would be a good way to determine if there were plenty of people that were interested. I know that there were a lot that posted on the original threads, I am not sure how many, so I know that there was interest in the idea. I just don't know what constitutes "enough interest" in admin's opinion.....
