A little over a year ago I created a little company with some unique designs for t-shirts, hats, and decals with the sole focus of promoting our fishing heritage. I have committed 20% of all proceeds to support the 3 major charitable events I am involved with, the DAV fishing day, the Cast for Kids fishing days, and the Catch-A-Cure for Cancer, support for Camp Hobe. This year I had planned to make a donation of $200 to the DAV in the form of items to be given away to the vets at the bbq. In response to Tom's call above I will donate this in cash and have committed to Tom that if he still doesn't have enough as we get closer I will donate more. I will also still be providing the vets with some give aways.
I am making this post not for notoriety or praise but merely to inform you all of an opportunity to give back. I am a vet of the first gulf war and fortunately I did not have to pay a big price, but I have the ultimate respect for any and all that have or will in the future.
If you would like to suuport these fantastic causes please volunteer your time or money as it will be very much appreciated.
I'll have hats and t-shirts available after the event for any of you that may want to support our work.
