GPOC Christmas Fund
The GPOC is raising money to donate and make Christmas better for a family in need. 100% of money collected will go to this fund.
We are giving away 3.06 grams of fine gold from the East Coast and a .73 gram nugget from California.
3.79 Grams pictured will be added to cons from dredging. The cons have gold in them so you will get 3.79 grams plus whatever is in the cons.
For every $5 donation you will receive 1 chance at winning the bag of cons.
For every $20 donation you will receive 5 chances at winning the bag of cons.
Donations will be accepted till December 1st at midnight. The drawing will be held on December 7th and the winner announced at 9PM.
If you wish to donate to the GPOC Christmas Fund please PM me on this site.
I changed Image sites photobucket is down or something.
Thanks
Kevin |

Just so it is clear this is open to anyone that wants to participate.
You do not need to be a GPOC member. Wes |

You're not going to start giving out free cell phones are you..??...
Try the Red Cross in your area to see if there is a special need family..!!
Or a local Vet that needs help...

I will be donating, but I don't know how much I can send, I have to wait a week to 10 days to see how my finances are working out so I can donate as much as possible, but I will get it done before Dec. 1st. |

I talked to a business acquaintance of mine today, he is also a part time missionary.
He told me about an elderly lady they were trying to help.
She has no hot water and some of the floors in her house are rotten and about to fall thru.
I will learn more the first of next week and will post the details. Wes |

There are only 6 days left to send me a PM if you would like to donate to the GPOC Christmas fund. The money has to reach me by the 6th to be in the drawing.
Thank you to the guys that have donated!!!

I have decided to use a portion of the money raised to help an 83 year old lady.
She has no family or anyone to help her.
She has a gas hot water heater that has quit working and needs to be replaced and she cannot afford to buy one.
I will purchase the water heater and some guys from a local missions group are going to install it. Wes |

Sounds like a good use of some of the money Wes.
Kevin as promised, the check was put in the mail early this morning.
Let me know when you get it so I know it got to you. |
