I don't know what to say Dave but we need to do something...

I don't know how to say this but come on guys let's get these donations going. As it stands right now the value of the prizes donated comes close to double the goal of the campaign and we aren't even halfway to the goal yet.

Had a disturbing conversation with Jon last night and their situation is not improving and they really need our help. Jon's wife Heidi lost her job earlier this week so now they are reduced to 1 crappy income instead of the two they had. With 3 kids still at home, two of them teen age boys keeping the family fed is on its own a challenge. Let's help this family out, donate to the raffle or if you know of someone that is looking to hire a good reliable person with experience in all sorts of fields maybe reach out to Jon directly and pass on the job lead.

I wouldn't normally ask to give more than you can afford, but pay it forward now ...
We spoke too. I don't like his situation at all and the way they are treating him at his work. I agree with you Gary the value of the prizes is up there. Also the donations are not what I thought they would be. I was afraid of this with the other raffle being so large that it had drained many people's money. I think more could be done but can't thank the ones who've helped enough for what they are doing for Jonathan and his family.

What do you think about auctioning off some of the bigger items donated? Just a thought to try and raise more money.

With work starting up next week hopefully I can do better than I have been. Been a long hard winter here.
