I have a friend. VERY close friend. She is not going to be able to provide Christmas for her kids. Long story short, her ex husband was the bread winner. Which kept her under his abusive thumb for many years. Well times are hard. She's doing everything to keep the roof over their heads. Tonight she was giving them some spirit by roasting marshmellows over candles.
She has a paypal (tinablairwatkins@gmail.com). She doesn't know that I'm doing this, but I've always felt most riders do a lot of charity work or good will work. I'm about to drop her $50 to try to get a Christmas dinner. But I figure if people drop $5 and there was 100 of us.. the kids might get Christmas. She doesn't know I'm putting her business out like this, but I'm hoping that maybe the spirit is in the air and will come through.
Feel free to ask me anything (via pm) if you need any comfort to donating to this. But just asking for like $5 or 10.. what ever you won't miss. For a lot of us that may be just coming up one six pack short for the week.
And trust me in the fact that I only donate when I feel that it's truely going for the right cause. (i.e. no the guy on the corner that says he can't get work but I see him at the week pay hotels and the room reaks of weed and beer cans every where)
if you can, please paypal tinablairwatkins@gmail.com
Thanks in advance, God bless and Merry Christmas. (please keep this thread alive up to Christmas)
