We can help those here in amongst our ranks or if you know of someone that could use some help that would be fine as well.
Give us some input. |

| | | | Okay, just so you guys know....
There isn't a place on there to add any comments or notes, so for the record I'd like to state that the money I donated needs to go to the family I mentioned from Ohio. I will continue donating (as I can), but this is who I'd like to help out this time around, okay?
Love you guys!

If you want to give to the fund, but not sure who the recipients are (besides the family T&O motioned), please PM me. I'm not sure at this point I can give out their names here yet. Thanks.

Matthew 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
We have $240 in the fund. And another $50 committed.
Here are the 3 friends that could use some help. I have their permissions now to list their names: T&O's friend, Intothecrimsonsky and Catlover.
The donation will be sent out shortly. Thank you all so much for supporting and sharing your blessings.
Galatians 6:7...for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

| | | | I wanted to express a concern I have with this, which isn't a big deal, but something worthy of being mentioned.
I donated to my friend this time, and OntheDL ended up sending me back the money to give it to her, so PayPal made about $7.00 off the whole deal--which cost me and OntheDL some money and left my friend without the full amount.
It would've made more sense for me just to send the money directly to her through gift cards, you know?
Is there any other way besides PayPal to do this?

Why? I know if you send money with Paypal by credit card, they charge 3%. But I sent cash. They shouldn't have charged anything.

They charge the recipient a fee for any transfer of funds into their account. That's why PayPal loves the eBayers! If they charge a small fee on every transaction it isn't that noticeable and they make a fortune.
I added the fee amount back in to give an even number to my friend, and it really isn't that big of a deal, but I think we should explore other ways to donate, if possible.
