Life Benefit Volleyball Tournament and Mizzou Blanket Raffle

Lono · 03-04-2010, 08:58 AM

A very good friend of mine who was on his 2nd tour in Iraq was called back last month to come home. When he arrived home he found out his 7 yr old son has a rare form of cancer. He is blind in one eye already and going blind in the other. The cancer is on his brain and spine. Long story short, my wife and I are throwing a benefit volleyball tournament. A high school FACS teacher and her students made this blanket for us to auction off. The logistics for anyone on here to buy tickets for it might be tough, but I would be willing to pay shipping to anyone who wins it. If interested let me know through this thread or pm or whatever. Anyway's I thought it was a pretty cool blanket.

Ok, someone will have to tell me how to upload the pic, im a noob.

I'll take some tickets.

Oh, and to post a pic, I think you'll have to find a site to host it and then link the url. Regarding payment, you could set up a paypal account.

I'm not sure a pic is even needed though; If you a) love kids and/or b) are a Mizzou fan, you'll probably get some tickets.

I have a paypal account, hadn't thought about that. I have tried everything I could think of to put the picture up and nothing. I'll send you a PM later Pitt, thanks.

You might want to set up a separate paypal account for the benefit. I realize it doesn't really matter, but if the benefit was in the name of the account, you might be more likely to get donations.
