The site has a link to print off a form which CRedskinsRule posted. The form is actually missing a slot for people who just want to donate any amount of money. If you want to donate something just write in an amount and you can donate in your name or how ever you want. We pride ourself in the fact that 100% of what we raise goes to the children to buy hearing aids and speech equipment. Most of the speech equipment is stuff we by that goes to the school system and we also purchase around 8 sets of hearing aids for children each year. Those things are not cheap and run around $3800 a set.
Bah tell those kids to get a damn job, they can mow lawns or take out trash can't they?!
Got any way of taking electronic payments? I don't even have a checkbook anymore.

Yes, we will have plenty of cold beer I think either $2.50 or $3.00 a cup. We also have a Corn Hole competition which for some reason the sign up sheet is not provided on the site but I can get you that info. Tickets are $5.00 per family or per person. That gets you in and a chance to go around and sample all the chilli and vote for them. We also have a live band, childrens tent with stuff for them to do, and a lrge slide for the kids. For other food which is my gig we have hot dogs or brats, chips and a drink for $4.00. We will have chilli for sale at our tent until it runs out.

Thats funny because I'm kind of the donation cop. Our goal is to help kids who's parents really do not have the money to buy hearing aids but people will try to get free money when they could buy them on their own. We get alot of referals from doctors working with kids who know the situation and the childs needs and we only give the checks to the equipment provider. No we do not have a way to take electronic payment. Sorry.

Does the organization not have a bank account?
Why not use Paypal or something? Shame to not take money because nobody put in a few minutes to make it possible.

If you vouch for them I'll donate and even get my company to match the donation. I called George Fischer to get the Club's EIN (Employer Identification Number) but he didn't pick-up. If you know what it is let me know cause I need that to get a match from my company.
