BDII Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 A message from Aczwild, Alright guys and gals of LGT.com (yes guys there are girls here on LGT) and the Subaru community, it’s the Christmas season and its time to help some one out. As previously posted in this thread, there is a kid out there named Marco that needs our help. So, Highwaydrifter, 03Indigo, Bu11dogg and I have put our heads together to bring you the great LGT.com Christmas giveaway!!!!!!!!! Here is the background on what Highwaydrifter and 03Indigo are trying to do: Marco, from Lame Deer, Montana is suffering from AML, a form of Leukemia, and will soon undergo a bone marrow transplant. He is 4 1/2 years old, and he is having a very tough go of it. So anything to make things a little better for the family would be wonderful. I am only hoping Marco gets a chance to get out of the hospital and enjoy it. He has been in the hospital, in the same room since August 12th, 2005....and with all my experience and knowledge, I don't see him going anywhere any time soon, at least not until February or so. His family is very poor, and basically has nothing. The family stays at an apartment donated by another family that we used to care for. Pretty much the only thing they have is the one car that his mother drives, the clothes they brought with them, and each other. In the apartment is his mother, a single mother here by herself, and his older sister and younger brother. Since I am Marco's primary care giver, I don't want them to know I am involved in any gift giving...they have a lot of pride (Native American's, Northern Cheyenne Indians). So I’m asking for your help to give Marco and his family a good Christmas and some hope. Thanks so much for doing this Cheers 03Indigo We have decided to take a collection for Marco and his family of money and gifts (primarily money though). Highwaydrifter already has a Paypal account setup for donations (see below for the link) and if you would like to give gifts please contact 03Indigo via PM. Now, this is where Bu11dogg and I come in. We have already donated money and gifts, but in hopes of really raising some money/ getting gifts for the family we have come up with this fundraiser: For every $30 collected from an LGT.com member (validated by Highwaydrifter), your name will be put into a hat for a drawing towards the following items provided by vendors on this site! The bidding for the items will conclude on December 18th, 2005 along with the donations (I’d let it go forever, but we would like Marco’s family to have it for the holidays). The winning bidders will be contacted by either myself, Bu11dogg, or Highwaydrifter for payment via Paypal (again using the link at the bottom of this post) and the items will be promptly shipped out to you. For all of those unregistered viewers or members of the Subaru community, now is the time to register. As long as you have a validated User name on LGT.com, you’re golden!!!! Thanks to all the vendors and LGT members that have donated to the cause for Marco, without you this wouldn’t be as big as it is going to be. Oh, for any members that are a little weary of this thread and whether or not this is a scam. I assure you that this is not. We are doing this for a very good cause and we mean well. Sincerly, Aczwild thanks Aczwild!! ok now lets move on to the goods.... 1. Turbometrics WWW.Turbometrics.com was kind enough to offer up an Up Pipe. 2.

Actually, I forgot - in order to send money without an account, I have to send you a request. Email me how much (or PM me or reply here) and I can shoot it to you. You should be able to use a credit card to pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
