What a great idea Ruth and Barb.
Keep us posted, will definately do what I can.
ACC is very important to me as it is where Stella (my little one) came from.
What a wonderful tribute for someone who not only loved the island but the animals as well.

Sounds like a wonderful tribute and a worthy cause.
Thanks to Ruth and Barbara for taking the time to honor John in this way.

Guys, don't give up on us. We are putting that web page together. Or at least our webdude is. Thanks for all your support. Amy just sent this pic. I think this is the one we are gonna use on the website for ACC of St. John. I miss him!

I counted 33 names on the list. Most were identified as VIOL members, and a few who were not ID'ed as members were people I recognize from the Forum.

The best part is that we raised more than $1,600 in less than 24 hours. That is well over 1% of their annual budget. Let's see if we can get above 5%.

Congratulations to all who helped. We can do so much more together than we can alone.

Wow, up to $2200+ now.

Yeah! And that was less than 24 hours. Connie is the chik that answers the phone at the ACC. I talked to her yesterday and she couldn't believe it. What a great group of John Friends.

Hoping everyone can reach deep in honor of Mr. B and donate again to the ACC and get them out of this financial trouble they're in now!! See the other thread started by stjohnjulie here:

I kicked in another couple of bushwackers....uh bucks also. Let's get them to update our tally. It would be good to have them remind us of what we have done.

Things seem to have quieted down a little.Keep those $$$$ flowing for a good cause. We don't want them to be in the same situation any to soon-DO WE?
Thanks, to all who have given.
