Toolbrat needs your vote

edited October 2004 in General Discussion
Some of you might remember. 2 years ago, Toolbabe and I let Toolbrat compeat in the School pagent (I dont realy agree with pagents but it was her last year in middle School). Anyway now she is a Sophmore and wants to be in the pagent. The JROTC class is sponsering her (How could I tell them no?) One of the catagorys is Miss Personality. You can win this by getting monatary votes. I was not very happy about soliciting money. Untill I found out that all the money goes to the Booster club (This is a very poor School she goes to. And realy could use some help.). Most of the girls have family and friends around here. This is a good source of support votes. But we do not have any family and most of our friends have girls thay are allready supporting. So this leaves very few places for Toolbrat to solicit support.
Toolbrat and I are asking if any of the GB members would like to place a vote for her? And in the process help out her School. Just a dollar would be great. If you would like to place a vote E-mail me through the link at the top of the post.
For those of you that dont know Toolbrat I will tell you about her.
She is 15 years old. Is very active in JROTC at School and has achived the rank of 2nd Lt. Last year was her first year and she was the most decorated student in JROTC. She is also on student council, year book commitee and is president of SADD. She plays 3 instruments in the School band and has been learning the guitar. She is an A-B student in all Honers classes. She plans to join the US Army after School and attend college. Planing on a carear in the medical profesion.
Thanks in advance. TOOLS and Toolbrat

    I'll give Gracie twenty votes. I can put off that liver transplant a while longer for a good cause.

    Come on guys. I challenge you on this one. The checks or money orders are made out to the school, so there is no need to worry about where the money will end up. Let's help Gracie win and in doing so, we are helping a good cause. Everyone can spare a buck or two to help the young kids in this world. If you won't do it, who will?

    How you doin'!

    Yeah, Gracie is a good kid. And Lord knows that school could use the money. They have unisex locker rooms and it ain't because they are forward thinking liberals. Their idea of a warm shower is to have the urinals flush directly into the shower stalls. When the cafeteria has mystery meat it always coincides with gas day at the animal shelter.
    Aw shoot, now I talked myself into another twenty votes.

    I'm bringing this one back to the top and asking you folks to consider sending this young lady a money order for a few bucks to help her and her school. The MO's are made out to the school, so you know that they receive the money as you directed it, but in her name.

    Let's help some good kids and a good school who just doesn't have the resources that large schools have.

    $1, $2, $5? It all adds up to provide a better school experience for kids. This is something that your taxes fail to do.

    Please help out!

    E-mail sent. Waiting for your reply!

    I know you've got good reasons for not doing it, but it would be easier if you'd post the information here on how and where to send the funds.

    Gracie called me after she received my votes too. I had taken a chemo treatment 8 hours before I spoke to her, so I wasn't much of a conversationalist, but I did enjoy talking to her, and was greatful she called. I too urge anyone who can to help this young lady out. She is an exceptional young person, especially in this day and age.

    Good luck Grace. I hope you win![;)]

    Other things calmed down a little.
    I finally got around to sending a "few" votes.
    Good luck Grace.
    Keep up the good work. [;)] [:D]
