Reno Air Race Relief Fund

[sandramore]

RARA just sent out a little statement with this link:

"Our efforts remain on those affected by the tragedy. Think Kindness has established an official Family Assistance Fund"

ThinkKindness

There's also a flyer that you can download to put up on your website, in your favorite coffee shop or wherever.

Re: Reno Air Race Relief Fund

A young man named Jackson Bellard sent this to "Think Kindness," who are managing the Relief Fund. Jackson was there on Friday. He plans on taking any money he gets for his airplanes to Renown Hospital to help pay for medical bills.

If anyone wants to contribute, send it to me and I'll make sure it gets to Jackson.

Here you go:

Sandra More
PO Box 20686
Reno, NV, USA 89515

Oh, and he says he's happy with change. Feel free to tape your coins to a card and drop them in the mail!

He's in elementary school. I see a young air race junkie in the making.

Isn't he wonderful?

Make the check out to "Think Kindness Family Assistance Fund." Send it to me and I'll deliver it to Jackson.

Yes, PayPal is available on the ThinkKindness website and it's a great way to inject a lot of money into the fund really fast.

Re: Reno Air Race Relief Fund

Using PayPal is a great way to inject a lot of money into the fund really fast. Is there somebody over at Think Kindness that we can contact to see about arranging this?

They're probably gone for the day. I'll call tomorrow and find out.

Heya, Sandra, no need. After I posted, I went rummaging around over at the ThinkKindness website and they do have PayPay available.

Cheers . . .

Oh good. Silly me for not thinking to google them first. I think that dates me. My kids would never even consider picking up the phone if there were a computer handy. lol

Is there a field for adding a comment when you donate? It would be great if we could let them know the donation is because of Jackson.

Re: Reno Air Race Relief Fund

Jackson has a box for donations set up at his school. His parents are being very protective of him.

At any rate, they requested that your donations be left at the school, which I did. I was hoping to meet him, but his father was leery, to say the least. I don't think they anticipated the sort of attention he would draw.

Re: Reno Air Race Relief Fund

Thought I'd let you know that so far Jackson has managed to raise over $500.
