Do you remember...Christian Children's Fund commercial?

One of those Christian Children's Fund commercials was on in the background today, and it made me remember watching tv at my grandma's house, and the Bonnie Franklin commercial for Save the Children (it's not that entertaining, but if ya wanna see it, ffwd to the 7:25 mark ---> a buncha 1983 tv commercials .  The old Milford Plaza ad is in this mash up as well...you know you remember that song!).  I remember her saying that for 52 cents a day ($16 a month) you could save a child.  "Imagine, the cost of a cup of coffee could help save a child..."  Man, those companies couldn't use that as a selling feature today.  For Starbucks drinkers, that would be about $4/day, or $120/month!
