3 Good sized boxes headed to Chula Vista! Will be there monday from Ontrac! My dog actually ate one of the gifts! I really let him have it...I told
him that one kid in Mexico will now be without a gift for Christmas because you ate it!
A lot of the gifts this year are being donated by my kids. They realize they get way to much and have decided its better to give stuff to kids that
dont get anything! I hope one of these years we can make the trip with you guys! It would be great for my kids to see, and good spanish practice. 2
of them are in spanish immersion school and one will start in 2 years!
Hope we can meet the goal!
If the person in sac cant get someone to drive down I bet I can get my brother to donate the shipping as he does for me! Thanks Scott and Steph!!

Just getting in on the tail end of this.. Can I still send in a check to the Baja Bound Ins address on the first page of this thread? Or is there a
better way to expedite it?

Hello bbbait!
A gift card would probably be the easiest way to send money. Oso sent a Toys-R-Us card that will be used to buy toys before the 16th. If you do prefer
to send a check, inquire with Fernando (fdt) and see who it should be made out to....

bbbait - great that you have joined in, thank you. When you can, join us on the day of the toy and bike giveaway. It is an incredible day to witness
first hand, and many people with Fernando's lead work hard to make it happen.
BajaGeoff - what is the final day for you to receive gifts, money and bikes? And thank you also for making this event happen!

Thanks bbbait! Your contribution is going to go a long way for the kiddies!
Scot....I would say next Friday would be the cutoff date to get stuff at our office, but the sooner the better since we still have to transport
everything down to TJ. You are very welcome....our role is pretty small compared to what Ferna is doing though!
Yeah Nomads!!!!

If someone is interested in contributing in a monetary manner, we don't have a Paypal account but we have something similar and that is a Green Dot
card. How this works is that you can purchase at almost every CVS /pharmacy, RiteAid, Wallgreens, 7 Eleven or Kmart a Green Dot Money Pack for any
ammount from $20 and up.
Once purchased, just scratch off at the back and you can U2U me the numbers and that will really help us to make this event succesfull.
Gracias
Fernando

Thanks,
