Charity request - got a friend in need of transportation
Hello Pelicans.
I normally would not make a public request like this, but I really need to help my buddy. I know times are tough for a lot of folks.
He is a divorced, unemployed father of four, renting a room in a house and is having back trouble and cannot find work. He is on his last stint of unemployment. He is barely getting by, but is paying his child support and sacrificing his own needs. His Volvo wagon blew a head gasket several months ago and he decided to donate it because he could not afford to fix it. He currently has to bicycle everywhere and has to count on his ex to shuttle the kids.
This is really a sad story. They were the family who had everything, sold it all to do missions work in Tonga (set up a school), came back states-side and their life fell apart.
So, I thought I'd reach out to our Pelican community to see if any of you in, or near Surprise, AZ, have an extra car, a car you were planning on donating, a scooter, or anything which could help him get around, short or long term. He would freak if he knew I was posting this. He is a very skilled flooring installer and would probably barter too.
If any of you can do anything to help, please contact me offline via PM. At this point even prayers and positive thoughts are a great help.
Thanks for listening!!
cheers
