Off Topic: One of our own needs help

[cipsucks]

We're a tightknit community here at HHC.  This board is like family.  I've had the pleasure to meet many of you, and there are others whom I've never met but I feel like we're friends. tcp is one of them.  We come from different political perspectives, but love of music and Husker basketball overcomes all things evil.  When he finds out I made this post, our friendship is probably over.  Oh, well.

 

tcp is a Viet Nam vet that has gone through hell.  I'll leave it at that.  Like so many veterans, he continues to serve.  He has the opportunity to appear before a VA committee in Washington D.C. to testify about the opioids addictions problems among veterans later this week.  Problem is, he doesn't have the funds to cover travel expenses from Oklahoma to D.C.

 

How do I know this?  I had a prompting the other night to pm him to see what sup.  Hadn't talked with him in a few years.  You can call it what you want, intuition, happenstance or whatever.  I call it the hand of God.  And His hand moves!

 

I have a link where you can click to donate and learn more about what tcp is doing.  I've already donated, but here's an incentive for anyone here who would like to help him out:  for any $50 donation or more, I'll send you a 12 pack of Lucky Beef Sticks.  For any $100 donation or more, you'll get the beef sticks plus a quart jar of cipsalsa!

 

This really is urgent.  He needs the funds in the next few days.  PM me with info on how I can send you beef sticks and salsa.  Thank you!
