Request For Help For One Of Our Own
« on: February 26, 2013, 10:06:05 pm »

Darrel Hulse on the left, Don Hulse on the right.

If you have ever attended a Georgia Fiero Club meeting or event, you probably know or have met Aerodonamic.  His real name is Don Hulse.  Don has been one of the major Fiero dedicated and Fiero friendly mechanics in the Atlanta area since the mid 90

There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

Now you can donate by Paypal here.

We've received some great donations from Pennock's members. It's time for our own members to step up.

Yes, Don is someone you probably know personally and have met.  Most of the contributions coming in from Pennocks are people who've never seen him other than in the pictures I posted.  Come on, Georgia Fiero people.  It doesn't have to be a lot.  Any amount helps and is greatly appreciated.

I can't count how many times Don has helped us with issues, large or small.
I'd be very disappointed if we don't get people out of our own ranks to step up!

Have to get my Paypal sorted out.
If that doesn't happen soon, I'll just go to the bank and do it in person.

You may need the account number to make a cash deposit.  You can just write a check to the fund and they should accept it, though.

A bank will accept a cash deposit to any account with no questions asked as long as you have a way of identifying which account you want it to go to (name should be good enough here).  I used to take advantage of that fact to deposit a few cents at a time into random accounts in an attempt to mess with my sister's mind (she is an accountant).  Unfortunately, she is a good enough accountant that she never struggled to find where she was a few cents off....she just never understood who deposited $0.19 and why.

There have been some very generous donations.  Thank you to the person who made the donation this past Sunday.  You know who you are.  TNTCary has donated round-trip confirmed tickets, but we still don't have enough to cover the hotel room.  Every amount helps to reach that goal, however large or small. 

We discussed today that when we reach a set goal, we will close the account and all funds to that point will be turned over to Don and his wife.

A PFF member advised that the hotel has complimentary shuttle service to and from Indianapolis International Airport, so trying to get someone to shuttle them isn't needed.

We are still short of our goal, but we are closing the donation link on Friday March 8 at Midnight.  We must start making final arrangements for reservations and we feel we can't wait any longer. 

Thank all of you who have helped to make this possible.  We realize that some of you don't know Don Hulse, and that's what makes it so much more special.  That's also what makes Fiero people so special.

A big thanks to all who gave!
The donation link is now closed.

You did it!  You did it!  Georgia Fiero members and Pennocks Fiero members have exceeded out set goal.  That doesn't include the airline tickets, either.  Thank you to everyone for making this possible for Don and Patsy.
