Default wanna pitch in on a good deed?

My nephew plays with a kid (they're 11) and this kid has had a rough life. He's one of 5 kids in a family with a single working mom. He's had 2 siblings die (so there were originally 7 kids!). One died at about 6 weeks from what I understand and the other was about 13, went to a friends house and got killed in a car accident during a sleepover. His family doesn't have much cash, but he loves playing with GI Joes I sent my nephew. I'm gonna take a bunch of my Extra joes and vehicles and send them to this kid. If anyone has any old "spares" or "doubles" they wanna donate, you can send them to me and I'll forward them to him. They don't have to be complete or in perfect condition, just not broken to bits!

I was thinking if enough of us wanna participate, we can send a box marked "From the Crew at JoeDios.com". Any takers?

I wanted to post this yesterday, but being as I am a joker, I thought everyone might think I pulling an April Fools Gag.....it's real....trust me!

I know how it feels to lose someone you love.

my grandma died on my birthday, and my other brother( Sam ) died 4 weeks ago,
so my money is putting for bills and food for my mom and other bro.


so I will help anyway I can.

Cool I have...

I was going to list a GI JOE V2 Storm Shadow in my store. He's still got his tattoo and sword,backpack & Bow&arrow I think... I was going to list him.. but if you want PM me your address details and I'll send it to you asap marked specially for this transaction.
I'm sorry its not much.. but at the moment its all I have going spare and its the best example double figure I have for sale.
It would be neat to know a kid somewhere will get alot of play use of it.. if you want a pic before hand just say the word and I'll take a pic before sending on your approval.
Cheers
And yes this is a good deed anyone else got anything they wanna contribute?

Well... I'll dig in my Joe parts and if I find anything in nice shape I'll send it. I don't promise anything though, I rather don't have any Joe reserves...

Beggars can't be choosers....whatever you got is good. Something is definitely better than nothing!

If anyone would like to donate a buck or two, I have a paypal account. I could use the $$ to go on to SmallJoes or Guru-Planet and grab him some newer ones! I'll provide anyone who donates copies of the receipts!

Thanks, guys!

Frank
