Andy, can you or someone else set up a PayPal link so the 914club can donate? We've done a fantastic job of donating in the past. I don't care if it's $1.00 or 1,000.00, let's come together and help. The money we collect "will" save a life (or many. many more).

I'm tired of the US bashing from our neighbors and alies (some of these "perfect" governments wouldn't have a flag to call their own if it wasn't for the US).

How about we drop the politics, get off our asses and save some lives? Let's make a "positive" difference in someone's life. I can't think of a better way to start the new year. There's roughly 3,000 people here. If everyone donated just $20.00 we could donate $60,000. That would go a long way toward feeding, clothing and saving the lifes of many people.

Just log onto Google and you will have your choice of fine organizations right on their front page.

But Jerry, that's not the point. We could have told Dave the same thing, there's plenty of ways to donate to ALS. As a group we came together and helped make a difference in his life. It made him feel great and it made the members who contributed feel great.

Thread Here

I sold parts and instead of payment I told people to donate. I bought parts and was told to donate. I donated. I could see that I helped make a difference. Again, if everyone here gave only $20.00, we could actually save someone's life rather than continuing the rants about how bad the US is...

Here's an idea:

*Carlos is sending me a pair of rear brake calipers.
*Greg T. ask George and/or Dave D. ask Tom if they'll donate 2 rear caliper rebuild kits.
*I'll tear them down, cad plate them and rebuild them to new.
*Highest bidder gets them and the proceeds get donated to a fund.

How many of you guys could scrape up a part to put in the classifed section with the proceeds going to a Tsunami fund that would actually save a life? How many of you can come up with similar ideas?

My point is "ACTION". Instead of bitching about GW, we need to get off our hind quarters and DO SOMETHING. Make a difference and be proud of your club. I'd love to see what we could do. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smile.gif)
