OK guys - I know most of you have read about Shawn's situation with his 80-400 VR lens. Now I've known Shawn for alomst as long as I've been going to Reno - and a more genuine kind-hearted soul you will NEVER come accross.... His giving nature to the board with his incite and pictures plays testiment to that fact. We also know that the PRS is right around the corner and it would be a shame (a real tradgedy really) to see this photographer without his primary lens for this event, and Reno as well. So here is what I intend to do to help - because Shawn is my friend... and a friend in need is one that you cannot just turn a blind eye to.
I will match dollar for dollar any help that this community can offer to help him reach that $600 goal. In that spirit, I will put up the first $50 towards the money he needs to get his lens repaired. So that means we need to raise $450 (or $275 with the same in matching funds) to reach the goal.
The deadline will be May 8th (two weeks). After that point, we will tally up what we have and I'll cut a check for Shawn. Just post up what you can donate - and either paypal (with a note that says "ShawnAid") to AAFO or send a check to Wayne. Your word is good enough for me
So join with me to help out one great guy that just needs a little help through the ruff spots. Give what you can comfortably afford - and the rest will be taken care of.
Thanks in advance for your help
