Project Lead Truck
Special Olympics 2009
Thank you to those who took the time and effort to donate
to this wonderful cause. We were the winning bidder with
a total bid of $1650. My family wound up donating the
vast sum of that money, but every bit helped. Thanks
especially to the Colyer and Tombaugh Families for their
generous donations.
The Special Olympics of Missouri and the local law
enforcement were very impressed with our collective effort
and the athletes and their families were thankful (and
tearful) that the winning bid came not from a big company,
but from everyday people that cared.
While this year our initial motivation was based on an
offensive comment, we are pledging to do this and make it
an annual event. It's never too early to donate to the cause
The 2010 Special Olympics Convoy will take place on
September 18, 2010. St. Louis will again participate,
along with dozens of other cities. What I am asking you to
do, is to donate whatever you can for a great cause to
show not just our President, but everyone, that the Special
Olympics is and forever will be a cause for celebration
rather than the punch line to a joke.
What I ask you to do is, once again, give whatever you
can, even if it is $1. Pass this on to your friends and
everyone you know and ask them to give what they can as
well.
These donations will be 100% tax deductible as they
are being made payable to Special Olympics. I am
receiving absolutely no benefit from this whatsoever. By
filling out this Special Olympics donation form and including
it with your donation, your donation will be registered with
Special Olympics once the donations are provided to the
Special Olympics on September 18, 2010. In other
words, please be sure to remember that these checks will
be cashed by the Special Olympics on or after September
18, 2010. DO NOT SEND CASH!!!!!
It should also be noted that while the lead truck donation is
a "highest bidder only" style of donation, 100% of the
received donations for this effort will be presented to
Special Olympics, regardless of our success or failure to
be the highest bidder.
Further, the names and donation amount (unless
requested otherwise) will be posted on this News page
once received until after the Convoy is complete. This will
help verify the receipt of your donation and make this
process 100% transparent.
To participate, please send your donation PAYABLE TO
"SPECIAL OLYMPICS" and your completed Special
Olympics donation form to the following address:
