St. Jude Donor '08-'09-'10-'11
Default St Judes Fundraiser

Its summer time and we are more than 1/2 way to a new record. Id like to take the time to let everyone know how to donate:

How to make your donation:

1) Personal checks, cashier checks, or money orders, made out to: St. Jude Children's Hospital and mailed to co-organizer "pewter99":

Robert Briggs
P.O. Box 17083
Clearwater Fl 33762
Please put your forum name on the memo line of the check.

2) paypal: corvettes4stjude@aol.com
Please add your user name with payment

3) https://waystohelp.stjude.org/sjVPor...9&programId=51

This page is designated to the Corvette Forum fundraiser, and we get credit for all donations made here

**NOTE** There is no place to add your user name when using the St. Jude Donor page, so, please send me a PM with your name and CF user name after making your donation.**

Checks made out to St. Jude Children's Hospital, and donations made on our St. Jude designated page, will get you a receipt from St. Jude for tax purposes, paypal will not.

Note: on all donations, please list your forum name so you can get your your St. Jude Donor '09 tag, and for record keeping.



I lost my sponsor for Supporting Tuner and likely wont be able to use porting manifolds to aid in the effort but if everyone still just sends 25 bucks it can still happen. Previously I was making the donations in the name of customers who got the porting from me. I will make the donations for this last few weeks (I fell behind) and then thats likely to be it. Thanks for your support.:o

Default Maybe some background?

I am a fairly new member of CF and more than willing to donate to a good cause - where do I find more info on it?

A man is walking along the beach and is picking up starfish and throwing them back into the water before they dry up in the sun. There are hundreds there every day and he cant possibly get to them all. A young woman walks by him and says, "You cant possibly make a difference to the starfish as a whole in relation to the vast numbers daily, weekly, and yearly that wash up on the beach."

He picks up another one and throws it back in the water.

He says to her, " It made a difference to that one."


Save a life with tomorrow's lunch money. If everyone donates 25 bucks, we break the record.

Thanks. Its good day then.

By the way, I'm driving to the St Judes cruise in this year if anyone wants to meet up. I'll even let you punch me for donations to the hospital. SpinHaters will like that one.

Kids get to sit in cool cars and you meet a bunch of great people. Every year I come up with excuses and regret it when I see the pictures from the event.....especially the massive forum get together to EAT.
