NEW CHALLENGE FOR GREEN BERET FOUNDATION FUNDRAISER
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
Warriors and Shield Maidens, Update and additional challenge.
We're knocking on the door of $5000 for the GBF.
We are currently @ $4568.50
Many items are past the point that some can afford to participate.
That being said, we have asked the GBF to establish an avenue that allows donations of smaller amounts for those that want to still be part of the Team.
Lets get behind this and all donate what they can comfortably afford.
$5, $10, $20, even $50 isn't a ton of cash, but added together, it can become a monster amount.
★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★
Use this link to help this endeavor.

Donation made, best of luck with the auction. Hope the small donation keep rolling, easy to do and they add up.

Thanks to those who donated. We had a very good day and raised more today then the first two days combined.

We still have a ways to go and any help would be appreciated.

If you can't donate at least share the link with your friends. You'd be surprised how quick $5 donations add up.

Update,

Two days ago a number of us Shared this link many places and asked for donations. On that day alone we came $1000 closer to the goal we set for ourselves. Yesterday we didn't share and we came $20 closer. It seems sharing the link in the first comment of this thread and asking your friends to use the link to donate works.

Some might be leery of donating online. In my case, when I donate, I get a prepaid Visa card of a preset amount, use it and then throw the card away.

Some can't afford to donate and that's understandable. If you can't afford to donate, You can still help. PLEASE share the link in the first post in this thread and ask your friends to open link and use link. You can be responsible for helping the GBF simply by sharing.

Thanks

The auction ended last night with a total of $5362.50 raised for the GBF.

We still have the link in the 1st comment of this thread that leads to a donate site established to compliment the auction. It can accepts donations of any size and takes less that 5 minutes to use.

The Green Beret Foundation can sure use the help.
