Dan (nad1967) is a fellow campfire member and also is serving our nation in Afghanistan. Dan and his wife and his daughter, Savannah, are currently fighting another fight and they need our prayers and financial support. Please PM me for the paypal address linked to a special account for the benefit of Savannah and/or bank info & address so we can get them the help they need to make this battle easier on them all. Here is Dan's original link which gives more info and contains a link to Dan's wife's CaringBridge blog. http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/7557558/all/Thanks to all the special folks we have in this web community. Edited to add: Changed the subject to include "FOR SALE for benefit of Savannah". See posts below.

Please......If you want to donate to the family, donate directly instead of going through the CaringBridge website. The paypal address we provide will allow the balances to be directly deposited into Savannah's bank account.
I'm working on getting an address and account number for the bank to make it easier for those that want to mail a check and also easier on Dan and his wife.
That being said.......Thank you, Offshoreman!!

Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts. 42 But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins, worth only a few cents.
Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, �Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others. 44 They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything�all she had to live on.�
Mark 12:41-44

I will donate this knife to the cause. $185 donated and this Sean O'Hare gets shipped to your door. Brand New from maker. I will add he makes very few fillet knives so its a rare one to get from him. Once I get confirmation they have recieved your donation I will ship USPS Flatrate. PM me to arrange payment to simplify things.

Wow. That is very generous.
MCH has a great idea. This knife is not junk by any means, but if anybody has accumulated too much junk/stuff, we can start a for sale thread with all proceeds going to Savannah. Or we can just post them here. I'll edit the subject.
If you post something for sale for the benefit of Savannah, just post the link to the for sale thread here. I can provide the paypal address or mailing address so the seller can donate the proceeds after funds are received.

Sent you an e-mail Steve. Men and Women of campfire, you have made this ordeal a bit easier to handle for Amy and I. We were choked up tonight when we came back after a tough day and found donation e-mails waiting for us. GOD BLESS YOU!

257heaven informed me it would be easier to just have the buyer pay me then I make the payment to paypal. So if their are any takers on the itmes I listed PM me. I will also make sure I include that the money came from the buyer.

I now have the bank account info if you want to send funds the old-fashioned way. Please PM me for that information.
And thanks for all the help so far. Dan and his wife may have as long as a 2-1/2 year battle ahead of them, so they will need all the help they can get.
Also - I will post a VXII 3-9x40 matte duplex scope for sale with pics tomorrow with proceeds going to Savannah's fund. It's been sitting in the safe since I bought it and I have other spares that will see use before that one, so it's going on the block. If you have something you know you can live without, post it for sale with a link to the post here.

Donation has been made, I only regret one thing, I can't give LOTS MORE! I know it's not a lot, but collectively we can ALL help and make a difference. Thanks for keeping us free and safe!
Dan and wife, (couldn't find name anywhere, sorry), just remember children don't understand why things happen to them, in their world they just need to know mommy and daddy love them no matter what and "It'll be OK!"
God Bless!! Eric
