I did it! $50,000.00

[olddust1]

As some of you know, over 95% of my scroll saw art work is as a fund raiser for the Arizona Lions Clubs Handicapped Camp.

(http://www.arizonalionscamp.org/)

I just hit $50,000.00 that I have generated in donations over the past 15 years I have been doing this.

The camp provides a free week of camping experience for any Arizona Handicapped.

 

A few months after the season I receive some photos of those I have been able to help.

Makes it all worth while.

I'd give you a pat on the back, but I can't reach that far, so accept a hearty "WELL DONE".

[newfie]

Congratulations John that's a worthwhile cause. I'm an lions member as well we also send our special needs people to camp every year for a week. Thanks for sharing this with us. What kind of projects do you usually do for your fund raising?

John,

    I can not imagine there is anyone on this site or any other site that is as able as you are, to be able to attest that they too have even come  close to the accomplishment that you have achieved with your scrolling. You will surely receive many blessing from your generosity and desire to do for others. You are a remarkable man and a true hero of all our scrolling family. Thank you for what you do for handicapped in your area and the inspirations that you give to so many others to maybe consider some donations of their art for the benefit of others. You certainly humble me

There's no greater honour than helping someone in need and no better feeling in doing so. Credit to you John for a huge achievement in helping the handicapped. Many as myself envy you.
