John Reinecke Memorial Slot Car Raffle! DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

by **dreinecke** » Wed Dec 23, 2015 4:27 pm

You guys are all the best! I've got the extra donations and Brew - that is just too nice!

We will be starting a new thread for the web of the drawing - hang tight!

As I stated originally, we will be completely transparent with the money raised for this raffle.

Total donated:

$3535 - via PayPal directly to the fund.
$200 - via an annonymous donation two days ago direct to Austin's page. This person contacted me as they could not quite get PayPal working.

As a result, we have the following donations made this evening:

I may get questions on the splits - Emily had some fantastic donations the past week and surpassed her goal! That is awesome and we could not be happier!!! We still wanted to honor donating to her, knowing that it will be a blessing to her.

Austin is well short of his goal of $20k. We just got him a quarter of the way! I'm so incredibly proud of this group and I'm going to keep donating to him as I am able throughout 2016 to help him reach it.

Thank you again. My father is undoubtedly elated as this is exactly the kind of thing he simply loved - helping others. My step mother and sister were able to watch the drawing tonight live. My step mother texted me this afterwards: "I'm crying happy tears - dad would have been so proud"
