Default Sad story, family needs help, trying to raise money

http://www.wtkr.com/Global/story.asp...5&nav=0oa7CW5f

See above link.
They live behind us, a very nice family, Glenn is 30 years old still in ICU, accident was 18 Sept, he was a family boater with three small children (boat is now for sale) and they are truely struggling, a plea for assistance from the mother in law was on the news this morning, Nancy saw it and told me to try to help, we made a front door cash contribution and I figured I would spread the word to help, I hope no one minds me doing so here on the board.
I know none of you know him, and I won't give you the holiday season spill, I just know many of us can spare some money for a really good cause.

Any amount would help, if you don't have a SOUTH TRUST bank mail the check directly to them, the family, wifes name is Tammy.

Thanks,

Thats great!! Things like this should make us look at our high dollar boats and trucks we need to pull them with and realize that we can spare some money to help others in need. There are over 7k members on this board. Imagine how greatfull the family would be if we all just donated $5.00. Or even a dollar from each member.

I would challenge EVERY member to send $10.00 That would raise $70,000. What a terrific display of THANKS for the good fortune we all have! Mine on the way!
