edited November 2013 in Lost Dogs
I'm going to put on a raffle to benefit families that were affected by the nasty storms that went thru last Sunday that left several hundred homes completely leveled, there are several hundred homes with damage and thousands left without power or gas. It looks like a war zone and many families lost everything. I personally know 9 families with kids that have nothing left. Im even boarding a high school friend and his pregnant wife that lost everything. It will take these towns years to recover from what took just 1 hour or less to destroy. The damage stretched across 5 towns and there are a thousand people in need of assistance. I've got several items from my personal collection and I'm trying to see if anyone would be interested in donationg items so we can have a raffle here on lost dogs, no items are too small. I will post more as soon as I can. If you have any items you can part with please pm me. All funds will go toward food, shelter, water, baby care and help to those in need. I appreciate the help!! Stay tuned for details on the raffle, I have a red lightning bolt to raffle and ill have many more items as well. Thank you

  • Hey guys,

    I've got 3 rare T-shirts (2000 tour, 2009 tour and Wrigley). They're yours. This storm was truly devastating. Hopefully you'll get more interest once the items are up.

  • My in-laws live about 5 miles south of Washington. We were in town visiting for the weekend and witnessed this shit first hand. We spent 45 minutes in a powerless, old basement of a church with candles. We sang church hymms and prayed as the sirens were blaring nonstop. Its the first time I ever was truly frightened by the weather. Like I said, we were 5 miles south of the twister and I've never witnessed wind like this. It seemed to make a "U" right around us. I have nothing to donate, but I'll certainly be in for some raffle tickets or whatever you decide to with this.

    Thanks for doing this.

    The storm hit us fairly hard in Tinley Park and there was a touch down in the next town over. NOWHERE near the devastation or damage of the folks further south.

    I would love to help.

    pm sent. Donating double set signed numbered variant posters from Brooklyn shows. Was going to save for future tradability, not flip-ability. But better for raffle-ability for cause like this. Good luck with the raffle for good cause. We had tornado sirens go off too here in OH, but no damaging winds. Really scary weather, especially at night!!

    The response for this has been amazing, I have a 2 month old baby, and he was not a happy camper last night and didn't allow me to get much done with this, but I will be posting info thru the weekend. Thank you all so very much for your support!!
