Saving a Family, and a Farm — Already More Than 1/10 of the Way There

Note:  This was supposed to post much earlier, but my day and evening got hijacked. I'm posting anyway to catch any overnight surfers and my early morning peeps.

I wrote last night about the situation my friend Bobby is facing, and his efforts to save the farm he and his late husband Juan shared with their many beloved rescue animals. He has created a GoFundMe page, with an overall goal of $12,000. This will allow him to save the farm, get their animals back home where they belong, and make it until he begins his new job. 

In just over 24 hours, he's more than a tenth of the way there.

For one day (and the end of the workweek, too), that's nothing short of phenomenal.

But this means that 9/10 must still be raised. So we have work to do.

If you can give, wonderful. But I know how tough times are right now. So even if you can't, please share the link to his GoFundMe page, with everyone you know. Facebook, Twitter, blogs, news sites, listservs, GoogleGroups, e-mail, word-of-mouth, print-outs shared by hand — please share this every way you can think of, with every single person you know. You never know who will be in a position to give generously and will be moved to do so.

I'll be back tomorrow to promote it again. Yes, you're going to have to listen to me for a while. Sorry about that. Well, not really, but you know what I mean.

Here's that link again: Bobby's GoFundMe page. You know what to do.

Chi miigwech.
