    Default Calling out any Other local Forum (GA) !! FOR CHARITY!! CAN IT BE DONE!!!

    Hey guys... I know is short notice! But lets make this happen!


    When I read this, it got my attention :

    Cruise for Kids


    Sounds like a great event... Every year I personlly choose one event or organization and donate a few toys for xmas...

    And the reason this caught my attention was the fact that they are also doing a cruise with the event and we can all drop of the toys at the location "Scottish Rite" . Sounds like fun event.


    BTW : This is not being put on by Importatlanta. I don't even know the people doing the event.
    I would really like to see this site and other local sites support if possible!

    I know some of you kick a$$ members on here are members on other local sites. Please post it on there site ! Copy and Paste this event!

    Lets forget about our Online Ego's and Do this for the kids!!!

After the cruise we will head back to Lubys for one last Tuner Meet before Christmas. Remember guys and gals this is for some very deserving children who dont get to spend the holidays at home with thier family and friends like all of us. Lets put a smile on those faces and feel good at the same time. The route is yet to be determined I will post it up on Mon Dec 8th.

    Childrens Healthcare of Atlanta is an amazing organization. My wife worked there for a while when she was in grad school and I know quite a few people on IA that work there as Pharmacist, Nurses, etc. This is a great organization to support

    Agreed...While I do not miss working there I do miss the children...They made any issues at work seem minimal. They were def a reality check as to why we were there.

    Its already been posted on GAdsm.

    Id absolutely LOVE to do it, but I will be out of town the 19th through the 21st.

    Everyone, grab a toy, no matter the price, and head out to the cruise. Gas is cheap enough now to just go cruise, and this is a great cause. Im volunteering at school today to help sort toys for toys for tots, and we already delivered donations to the Hi-Hope Center in Lawrenceville (help adults with mental disabilities), and donated money to St. Jude's while working at Dick's. It really puts a smile on your face and makes you feel good about yourself when you see these people's reactions to your gift. Something so small to you may mean the WORLD to these children, dont miss out on this!
