As most of you have known, we've been doing a collection of donations for @alpinehyperlite to help him and his family during the Baton Rogue flooding which he and his family lost all their belonging as the insurance was only going to cover structure damage to the house. Everything else gone!
Several members sent me a message nearly right after the news making the suggestion of taking up a donation. The thought alone was amazing enough, I thought, but to see the number of people who did donate was even better. Members both new and old, going through their own rough times or not, donated a lot or a little.
This place has been my home away from home for a long time and I know there are some of you out there that feel the same way but it's things like this where the community comes together for a bigger cause is just amazing. Really amazing actually and for that I wanted to thank everyone that did donate, no matter the amount, as well as to say you guys really are great!
Together we was able to send alpinehyperlite's family a total of $765.00. As I told him in a PM, I know this won't replace everything or make it all better but I sure this will help even a little bit. If for nothing else made take the wife out for a nice evening out to get away from all the headaches I'm sure they are going through and will certainly have to go through dealing with getting life back in order.
In closing I just want to say the names of those who did donate and their amounts will remain private, at least on my side. If you guys wish to say weather or not you did donate here or in PM that's your choice. This way those that want to remain anonymous can do so.
Again thank you to everyone that did donate.
