I am asking the members of this forum to help David. This is a ten year, 15000 post member and I believe his story is the truth. I had no idea that we have a forum member who is living in an old car.
Some time ago, I began refusing almost all crowdfunding requests in this forum, because it had gotten out of hand. There have been exceptions, and this will be another. That post was hard to read and I imagine others here will feel the same.
Let's step up and help this man. Those of you who have emailed me about this matter- you have a green light to do your best.
Let's go, SIGforum. Let's go.This message has been edited. Last edited by: parabellum,

Let us know what you are thinking. A new (used) car or housing or whatever.

First thing the man needs is a decent car.

If someone is collecting funds, let me know where to send a check.

We need a volunteer- someone who has been with us a long time, someone who is with us daily, someone we can trust without question- to collect the funds.

I'd be glad to help. This is a hand up, not a hand out.
I don't do paypal though, hope that's not a problem.

I'd volunteer, but my work schedule doesn't allow me to get to a bank before Jan 16. If that's acceptable, I'll do it. Email in my profile.
