Topic: Bad day in SC. Help if you can.

A friend of Lemons has had a house fire.  Everything is gone.  He has a wife and kids.  It's all gone.  Everyone is OK but all of the possessions are gone.

We've set up a paypal account

Thanks Peeps -

This coupled with the FB crowd has raised over $1000 so far.

The generosity of the Lemons family never fails to impress.

Shitty time of the year for this.  Not that its ever a good time, but still.

I just sold some parts I didn't need, and have a few bucks laying around in my Paypal account.  I'll shoot it over.

Re: Bad day in SC. Help if you can.

Funny thing - I, like the rest of you, have never met this family.  My niece is very involved in the local grassroots racing in the SC area.  She heard about this at one of the local races.

She felt like there was a chance that our community would jump at the chance to help.

I think we are making a difference.

Thank you, everyone, for your continued support.

Re: Bad day in SC. Help if you can.

The question is... Why wouldn't you?  Most of us can spare $10.  Think of the difference we could make for them if every team on this forum donated $10 or more.  No brainer for us.
