Please help....and look cool doing so!

Everyone donating at least $25 dollars to the Sam Green recovery fund will receive a t- shirt like the one Sam is wearing below. The fund administrator just needs to send me a name, address, size and color white or black and RC Legacy will send you a shirt.....may take a bit to get to you as I am low on stock but we will be printing again in 3 weeks ....you bigger folks may get lucky...have stock.

When Sam is again hoisting one as below he can tell me to stop. (I'll need proof by photo of course).

 I know folks usually like to see a tally of how the fund is going. It has been a couple of days since my last update with Jonathan but it appears there are about 50-60 contributors and we have collected via the Paypal account samgreenrecoveryfund@outlook.com right around $3000 in USD.
We are also in contact with the DRAW and they will be providing Sam with a substantial check of about $1500.
Interestingly enough, through the efforts of member here on the http://forums.sohc4.net/forum and the FB page https://www.facebook.com/samsrecovery?fref=ts, we've reached about 5500 total post reaches with 625 people actively engaged, nearly 3000 post clicks and almost 200 page "Likes".

I'd like to Thank you for your generous contributions, prayers and support. We still have a long way to go to get Sam fully back, we'll continue to need your support.

Sammy, I have been pretty busy and haven't taken the time to call you yet, but please know that Sherri and I are cheering loudly for you!

As many of you already know, Sam is a very special friend to me, my wife, and a lot of other folks around the planet. I was there when he tipped the bike but I am unable to be onhand to visit or help other than donating $$$$$. I want to express huge thanks to Cal, Bill, Jonathan, and all who are able to be there in person and provide feedback on the ole Bird's condition as well as all who have donated to the recovery fund. Also special thanks to Russ for generously contributing the RC T-shirts for inspiration.

The madScientist's generous contribution this morning has inspired me to make a special offer to help fund Sam's recovery and all the related medical and travel expenses. I have already made a contribution but am willing to go a bit more.

I do not have any T-shirts to hand out but I will match every individual $50 donation made in the next 48 hours, deadline 7/5/2014 11:00 CST, dollar for dollar. You give $50, I give $50.

The madScientist's donation this morning already counts. Come on guys and gals, let's do all we can to help both in spirit as well as financially. Post them up in this thread to inspire others.

Keith
