Michele 1 #1 January 18, 2004 Hi, all. As you know, Elsinore is hurting right now. Let's spread the love....here's a paypal account to make cash donations. PayPal The account is called "elsinoreappeal@hotmail.com". Instrustions are: To register for an account, have your personal details and your email address handy. Then click on the 'Sign up for your FREE paypal account' button (or use this link: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_registration-run). Fill in all the required fields (anything that doesnt have 'optional' next to it), and make sure you have a valid email address. Then click next/register. PayPal will send you an email with a link in it - click that link to activate your account - you can then login and use it. To be of any use, you can then associate the account with a bank account (debit) and/or a credit card. When you do this, PP takes out a random small amount (<$1), which you then have to type back in from your statement to authorise the card. This takes a few days, but dont worry! Thats why the credit card is good; even before it's authorised, you can draw up to $20 on it. So it's usable instantly. Then when you're all signed up and ready to go with funds in your account, you can send money. Log in, and click the big white 'Send Money' button (dark blue background) right at the top, second from the left. Enter the amount, and the email address that i've set up (elsinoreappeal@hotmail.com), and click send. I have never used Paypal. But it's here, and waiting to get used by all of us. The password and all other details will go to the folks at Elsinore as soon as they are not swamped with things. Additionally, Souleh has offered to take credit card donations if you don't want to set up an account. Contact him via pm for this. He will then forward everything to Elsinore, as well. Also, if you prefer, donations can be sent via regular mail to: Skydive Elsinore 20701 Cereal Road Lake Elsinore, CA 92350 Send in one jump ticket cost...send in 10 bucks. It doesn't matter. What matters is that we show support for our family, and spread the love.

kansasskydiver 0 #2 January 18, 2004 I have donated to the cause, wish I was closer and I could help out more Blue skies Chris<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skreamer 1 #3 January 18, 2004 Before I donate, who is that paypal account registered to? I like to know who I am giving my money to. Will Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
souleh 0 #4 January 18, 2004 Currently me, with a new hotmail account set up for it, but I'm just giving the details to Hammo, who will change the password etc. All your messages sent with the donations will be passed on too. Edit: I understand what you mean.. I'd feel the same way with sending money to someone I don't know. I can let you know when everything's been changed if you like. Nick.

souleh 0 #5 January 18, 2004 Okay, it's all transfered over now and the details changed. Thankyou to everyone who's sent a donation so far.. I'm sure I'm not wrong in saying that those guys must really appreciate it - every penny! Nick. 'buttplugs? where?' - geno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Nightingale 0 #11 January 18, 2004 Michele- I have a merchant account set up with paypal. What it lets me do is accept credit cards via a website, and use a "shopping cart" type thing. To get money out of a paypal account, you have to link it to a regular bank account, which can take a while. Mine is already all set up, and I would be happy to accept donations for Elsinore through this website. www.nightingalesnest.net/elsinore.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites MissMelly60436 0 #12 January 18, 2004 i put in 50 it seems like so little compared to what they need! i wish there was more i could do!!! but... every little bit counts! if theres anything else i can do just let me know....god bless, and many prayers for a speedy recovery from all of this!

And thanks sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo very much to all who have donated, and all who will. The money will come in handy, but the gesture - the way knowing people care will make those in need feel - that is priceless. Thank you all so much (and thanks, HH, for letting this stay sticky!)

And huge thanks to everyone who has already donated. I know there is no way we can ever replace all the personal gear lost, but we can start to make a difference, and every little bit helps. And it's more than the amount sent in...it's about letting those folks at Elsinore who feel as if they've lost everything that they haven't lost everything - we are still here, we are thinking of them, and we are supporting them. Because we are, no doubt, a family. And in times like these, family makes the difference between dispair and hope, failure and success. ~~Elsinore is not alone!~~ Ciels- Michele ~Do Angels keep the dreams we seek While our hearts lie bleeding?~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites weegegirl 2 #25 January 19, 2004 Thanks for setting this up.
