possible car show to raise money for hurricane victims
 

my buddy will most likely be hosting a hurricane fund raiser motorcycle/car show here in PA sat sept 17 in the morning, it will be around $10 a car to show and all other dontations are greatly appreciated, there will be food, 50/50 chance etc there!!! itd be awesome if we could get alot of the club at it!! it will be at a high school abotu 10 minutes from my house if people wanted to drive to my house and then car pool from there its cool i dont live that far from NJ, Timmy and Justin and craigs all been to my house. let me know whos all interested!!

I'd go, but that's day 1 of my suspension

im definately up for it

edit: and if you need any help what so ever, just let me know!

any update?

This isn't against the idea but did anyone notice that the government signed for over $60,000,000,000 for relief? All that money is going to be coming out of our pockets, the tax payers pockets so even if nobody does anything to help still every tax payer is helping :) .
BTW, where is the money going? What organization.

its going to the red cross

the update is it will be moved to the last fri of sept, he had some legal issues he had to take care of first

I think it is a great idea, but isn't it kinda odd to have a car show on a Friday?

he is still trying to set a date/time and all we are working on that now. itd be cool to see about a dozen of f bodies roll in all at once and see the NJ crew take over lansdale!! hehe

i don't support the red cross. only pennies per dollar actually make it to the intended charity and most of the $60billion the government just signed over is going to them anyway.

K thanks thats like an hour or so from me. This would be a good possibility for me to be there. Please keep us posted with times/meeting places/etc. Thanks

Actually the Red Cross gets none of that $60billion. Federal doesn't pay to charities, Red Cross is run stricktly through private funding. In this case they might share resources (money) but it's not normal and I would trust the Red Cross over most every other organization out there. The smaller the better. If I could, I'd give cash directly to people going down there to help and tell them directly how I want the money spent... even if they don't listen to me at least I got to say how I wanted it spent instead of playing Monopoly and having the "free parking" loot go to some lucky roller.

food and clothing is a good way to tell them how you want it spent. it's not like there isn't a need for it. some people lost everything.

there was a local organization that started filling a 20' walk-in. they got so much response that they went and got a 53' trailer. we dragged three boxes of can goods, boxed items and jars plus two green bags of clothes. if everyone in our neighborhood did the same, they would need more trucks.

there will be a spot to donate food and clothes, etc for people there also. this is a good cause so come on guys show on up!!
