Wood Needed

We have a woman who is very ill and has three young sons and needs wood to get through the winter. If you can help, please contact me ASAP. Thanks!

Laura is there a pay pal address one can donate to? I can't do much but I can send a bit of my Christmas budget. Making sure someones kids are warm seems a little more important than one more toy for the grands.

Lawless- we don't have a pay pal (the guys haven't set one up but now I'll get on them). Thank you!!!

Okay, then, is there an address I can send a cheque to?

Austan said...

Yep, it's in the first post (maybe I should pull that out so it stands out more)

The Windham County Heat Fund
c/o Richard Davis
679 Weatherhead Hollow Rd, Guilford, VT 05301

Thanks Lawless!!! Sorry-it's been a busy morning of people in crisis.

I have copied the address. I will see if my husband can write a small check for them.

Austan said...

Thank you Munir! Every dollar counts!

How much trouble would it be to cash a cheque in Australian dollars? I don't want to right a small cheque and have it swallowed in bank fees and charges. I do want to do at least a little to help.

Austan said...

EC- I don't think that'd be an issue. It'll just take longer to clear. Let me email the bank person I know and get an answer.

Austan said...

EC- Just talked to the bank, and there'll be no charge, it'll just take a week or so to clear!!! Yay! International cheques/checks welcome!

Thank you. It is Sunday and none of our post offices will be open - I will try for tomorrow or next day and then it will be a done deal.

Austan said...

Thank you, EC! Cindy got some wood today and will be getting another small truckload in a week or so. It's warm today but it won't be for long.

Cheque posted today. The woman at the post office marked it card only - and I was too tight to fork out for another envelope. Should arrive in a week to ten days. I would have liked to send more, but couldn't. Wonderful cause.

EC- We all thank you. The guys are tickled we'll be getting a check from overseas. :)
