Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

[Tim Jones]

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

Thanks for the suggestion.
Proudly made my donation.
If someone would remember to post a reminder from time to time, it would help me remember to help in the way I can.
In the past I was able to help buy a prop for Steadfast with the help of a suggestion for help from this site.
As long as we keep the suggestions closely scrutinized I'd guess many of us can send a little help from time to time.
But, if the pleas begin to start feeling like candy bar sales at the front door for every soccer team and local school band fundraiser..........

Again, glad to help. I don't have anything to offer for content, so I am a total consumer here.

Sure would like to know of a place where a gear head like me could look deep into a few engines being rebuilt around 70 year old designs...?(reciprocating, large displacement, vee type liquid cooled and radial multi-row air cooled preferred)

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

yes, I would buy an AAFO T-shirt if available, and paypal is my only way to do it and to make some contributions to this forum.

You guys should Sell Air Race T-shirts as a fund raiser for the site or AAFO shirts.

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

Would you consider putting up an alternate method to donate so that every penny donated goes to AAFO an not to Paypal/Credit card folks. I know I would prefer that, but will do what you request regardless because of the great service you and your contributors provide here.

Hoping others will keep adding to this effort. Thanks.

Hi Bob, Thanks for the request, the cc guys really don't take that much, paypal has about the lowest I know of for low volume (very low) operators like us..

BUT... every penny DOES count!

SO....

AFP
PO BOX 1218
LONG BEACH, WA
98631

I guess I should add that information to the page that comes up when the donate button is clicked..

You guys really are the best, I'd personally love to run this place with ad revenue, or be rich enough to just do it.. .but neither is the case and we are going to make it with your help!

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

Hey everyone, wanted to thank those who have hit the donate button... we're up to three months of web server fees!!!

and THANK YOU!!

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

THANKS EVERYONE!! We've knocked out a couple month's server rent and I'm absolutely grateful!!!!!

Please, don't be ashamed if all you can offer is a dollar... While the money is helpful beyond belief, the thought I'm reading in these donations truly warms my heart and makes it all more worth the while to continue to keep this site alive forever!!

I'd always hoped this "web stuff" I started fiddling with in about 1997, would become, at least, self sufficient... and in the past, at times, it has been, but it takes drives like this to get us over humps like we're in now..

If I were to croak tomorrow, arrangements are in place to keep it alive for a number of years, big problem is, I have to croak to get to those funds... ain't ready for that yet!!

So.... THANKS TO ALL WHO DONATE TO AAFO.COM!!! you guyz and galz are the best!

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

I just made my donation. $25.00 isn't too much to donate to make sure I have a place to get my Reno fix during the off season.

Wayne - Thank you for all you do here.

See everyone in 3 months

Re: Unofficial AAFO fundraiser idea

Thanks to all who have hit the donate button! We're hovering around a hundred dollars as of this AM and that will cover one half of one month's rent on the server...

Thank You!
