(please read) Can we help at Christmas? (NC4X4)

lets give a deadline of next Friday.(12-15-06) That will give me a week to purchase everything, wrap it, and figure out delivery. (plus deal with my own stuff).

if you need to snail mail me, feel free and send me a pm of the ship date and the amount. If the check is not here by friday, i will pull the cash out of pocket and deal with the check when it gets here.

Thanks again guys,
Andy
 
I talked with the lady a few minutes ago and Hospice was just there with the Grandfather. They gave him until monday. She is a mess. The grandmother says that we are all saints sent from heaven!


Update: They have lost some personal items due to repo. For instance The master bedroom suit. They have no bed, dressers, nothing at all. I asked what they had for a size (so that current bedding would fit) and she said Queen. She said that anything would be helpful!

They live in Randleman? off old Liberty rd.

Can anyone help with this???? Also they are about to lose their home.......that is more than we can probably help with, but thought that I'd point it out.
 
I have never done the Paypal thing. I just signed up and sent you some $. Hope it worked.

Thanks for what you're doing.

I have been contacted by a couple folks. One is sending a MO to give to the lady, and the other offered to buy some propane. If I get more than it takes to fill the tanks I will put it on an account for future fuel needs for them.
 
Couldnt start it in a week. could possibly have it done around the 22nd... maybe depending on how hard and intracent (sp?) the plans are.
 
Talked to Andy tonight.
WOW! So many are coming thru! I knew I was associated with a good group. I just didn't know how grand a group it really was. From what has been given, promised, and in the mail. I think we are going to be able to give both of these family's a great Christmas, meeting needs, and brightening their Holiday.
 
hey guys, this is great. I'm glad there are people out there that care enough about others to lend a helping hand. Just so you know, my donation is on the way thru paypal. I don't know where these 2 families are but if they are anywhere near the charlotte area, let me know and i'd be honored to help deliver stuff. God Bless.
 
Sorry Chip I've been out of pocket a few days.

I am in for the 2 tanks, delivered. Let's have everyone else pick up some money for food and such.

Chip,
Could you PM me a number to the gas company and the families address?
 
paypal sent...Happy Holidays
 
I'm in the process of getting new Queen mattresses for my bed. Nothing wrong with mine (only about a year old or so), I just prefer a firmer matteress.

Only delima, I'm not getting the replacement until right around Christmas when I get back in town. I could donate my barely used Queen mattress if needed, but it'll be past the Dec. 15th deadline, but I'll do it whenever I can. Let me know if this interests them.

Paypal also being sent

Thanks guys, the out pouring of generosity over whelms me. The giving nature of the guys and gals here go a lot further than a tug to unstick someone, or lending a wrenching hand. I applaud you all! A big difference is going to be made in two family's lives this year.
I won't name names but there has been some sizable gifts given to this. Everyone doesn't have deep pockets, and there are a few here who are not even completely in the job market that have been so generous with their donation. Keep on sending it in, still plenty of time, every, and do many EVERY little bit helps.
 
Money coming via Paypal Andy. Thanks for heading this up.

Check in the mail tomorrow. Excellent idea guys and am glad to help out.
 
The family I posted for originally does have another need. I completely forgot about. She has no washer or dryer. No big deal most of the time, but when you have a newborn, just had a C-section, and it's winter. It's a lot more difficult to get out to wash cloths.
So, if anyone has a used washer and or dryer, it would come in real handy.
Thanks guys
 
Sorry guys I drove to Michigan on Saturday and got back late last night.

We are over $400 at this point. (Paypal keeps a percentage when paid with a Credit card but it is minimal on each donation.) With promises I think that we are going to be in the $500-$600 range.

My Girlfriend (Kimberly) is starting the shopping today for family #2. We are starting with Clothes and Food, then toys and games.

I am going to paypal a percentage of the money to Chip to help with family #1. he and I are working back and forth at this point.
