just found out that you can donate to:

mulege rotary club directly and 100% goes directly into the community.

but, I did not get a direct link... maybe you can google it
or I have an address of one of the members in the states that would take the funds directly down
u2u me if you want it..

ON LINE DONATIONS THRU MULEGE ROTARY

Subastador - 9-19-2014 at 02:40 PM

DONATION PROCEDURE USING PAYPAL:

We are using Mike Fleming's paypal account. Here is how you do that:

1. go to paypal.com

2. login as usual

3. click on "send money"

4. copy and past or just type in TO: mike@fleming.cc

5. fill in your donation amount, click "PERSONAL" and choose "gift" and click continue.

6. on the next screen scroll down & write in the note space: "Forward this donation to Mulege Rotary" then click send and you have donated.

Some caveats:
First, misspelling will mess things up so cut and paste is the way to go.
Second: PayPal may hold large donation amounts for a day or two to "verify funds" or have other similar process with your account, usually they explain that on screen or in an email. No big deal.

Third: in step 5 above, clicking PERSONAL and choosing gift eliminates the 3% paypal fee so 100% of your donation is received.

Thanks for supporting Rotary and the fine citizens of Mulege.

Any questions....fire away. Use this forum or my email: tntsell@sbcglobal.net

DONATION INFORMATION

Subastador - 9-19-2014 at 02:50 PM

I AM THE INCOMING PRESIDENT OF THE MULEGE ROTARY

The above donation procedure was used in 2009 during the Jimena crisis, and Engineer Mike has kindly agreed to let us use his PayPal account again. (Mike is the director of the Mulege Student Scholarship Program {MSSPI} and a great supporter of our cause).

Rest assured we will fairly and equitably distribute all funds collected, and will fully account for same.

Thank you in advance for anything you can do.

Thank you for the Rotary Pay Pal info. My $ is on the way to help out.

Any other efforts that would coincide or cover other basic needs are appreciated as well.

EngineerMike - 9-19-2014 at 06:24 PM

The kitty is up to $600.
Money donations received here will go to food packets to be distributed by our Scholarship Treasurer, Saul Davis. He & his familia assembled 66 packets for us last flood, all going to unemployed or under employed & elderly folks who are way down the food chain, and hurt by the flood. Many cried on receiving the packets.

In kind donations should be delivered to either the Bomberos in town, to the Padre at the Catholic Church, or to another church of your choosing. For other churches, ask around the neighborhood of the church for the pastor, should be easy to find.

Thanks to all who donate, and those who wish they could.

EngineerMike - 9-20-2014 at 09:21 AM

Food Packet Kitty is up to $950.
I got Saul by phone this a.m., they are washing out the store as we spoke & will start assembling food packets as soon as the washing is complete.

Holy Cow!!!

EngineerMike - 9-20-2014 at 05:03 PM

This has been moving quite rapidly, which is great.
Kitty is now up to $3,200

This is the organization I belong to that gives assistance to persons needing medical attention. Pays for transportation, meds, hospital bills etc. 100 percent transparency. Doctor Soto is a member and offers his services for gratis. They could use some assistance.
Thanks

wetto - 9-24-2014 at 01:29 PM

Airstream,

Thanks for the potential link. Would be glad to help out for this cause.
However, for me, I don't do Facebook. Might you have another method to contribute?
