As you may know, five members of the 991 GT3 Concerned Owners Group will be meeting with a delegation from Porsche in late July or early August in Atlanta. A lot of people have offered to contribute funds towards our travel expenses, which will be in the ballpark of $1,000 plus per attendee, factoring in airfare, hotel and rental car costs. We sincerely appreciate all your offers.

Instead of accepting contributions to pay for our travel expenses, we have decided to setup a donation page, with all proceeds going to the victims of the Manchester attack. This accomplishes two goals. First, your donation helps people (many children) with much more serious problems than "finger follower wear." They need our help.



Second, every dollar we raise is a vote for our cause. This sends an important message. We would appreciate it if you would consider giving anything you can. While we have already made significant progress, we cannot do this alone.

Our goal is to raise $5,000. To donate, please click here.

Thank you for your support.

If there was such thing as a Queen or a King of Americas you would be knighted Sir Rob.

 

Thanks for the donation and kind words, Kobalt!

 

Update: we haven't had the donation page up 24 hours yet, and we have already raised over $1,000. That's 20% of our goal.

 

Donated.

Thank you Rob, and the team you've assembled! Very much appreciated!

If everyone on the 200+ list of owners makes a donation - we should blow that goal sky high!

 

Donated.

A great cause regardless of no longer owning my GT3

 

Done. Dont have a GT3 but a good cause nonetheless..

 

Donated.
This group here on RL is very special, glad I'm part of it. Once again, thank you Rob for all your efforts and this is certainly not going unnoticed.

 

Donated. Thanks for setting it up.

 

Awesome idea, but you should change the title of your thread. It reads like you are asking for donations for your travel expenses, which may keep people from clicking.

 

Thank you!

Thanks Jimmy!

That's the spirit! Thank you!

Thanks Bronson! See you in Colorado?

Thank YOU for donating!

Thanks for the advice. What would be a better title? Any ideas?
