Default ** A Rennlist Friend Could Use Our Help **

If you drop by OT on occasion, you may be aware of the unfortunate health challenges that our friend Julie (Devia) is experiencing lately. The costs associated with the lengthy diagnosis and treatments, coupled with the debilitating effects that have severely limited her ability to earn an income, have hit our friend with a one-two punch.

Julie's Challenge

Several concerned folks have asked if there is something we can do to help her.

The answer is, yes there is.

I'd like to encourage the Rennlist community to help Julie by making a contribution via her PayPal account. The funds will be used to extend her medical insurance coverage so that she may continue diagnosis, physical therapy and treatments.

Please send what you can - every little bit will help. The Rennlist community has shown time and again that we really do care about our fellow Porsche enthusiasts. Let's do it again.

If you would like to help, please PayPal directly to Julie at: cimmerius@mac.com

I'm in.

Here's the link to the original post in Off Topic - feel free to post there so Julie will see your well-wishes:

Randy . . . PayPal takes a percentage of what is deposit. Julie can surely use that money more than PayPal needs it? Like you said, every little helps.

True, Ron - but the convenience simply outweighs the small fees assessed.

Randy.
Just a reminder that Off Topic is still "off limits" to us "unpaid" Rennlisters. I can neither read nor post to that thread, as others here I'm sure.

Yeah, sorry Glenn.

I guess the thinking is if folks can't afford Membership, they probably can't afford to donate either.

Maybe we're wrong.

Hmm, sounds like you don't have full 'Member' access, Marc?

Let me get that fixed.

THis is what I posted in the other thread:

I have sent Julie some money. But on top of that, YOU can HELP ME SEND MORE!

If you order anything from my store at www.hookedoncars.com, and mention "Rennlist Help for Julie" in the special instructions, I will send at least 10% of the total amount to Julie. Here is how much I will send:

Order total before shipping under $10.00 - $1 for Julie
Order total before shipping $10.01 - $20.00 - $2 for Julie
Order total before shipping $20.01 - $30.00 - $3 for Julie
Order total before shipping $30.01 - $50.00 - $5 for Julie
Order total before shipping $50.01 - $100.00 - $10 for Julie
Order total over $100 - minimum $20 for Julie

Again, don't forget to mention "Rennlist Help for Julie" in the Special Instructions!!!

Thanks, everybody, for helping a friend in need!
