I ask that everyone reads this letter for me....
Folks we need a lot of help raising money for children 21 years old and younger with Life threatening illnesses that want to go on hunting or fishing trips one last time before they pass away. We are a 501 C-3 nationwide non profit and are always in need of funding for these kids to get their dream hunting or fishing trips.
I ask every year and every year I get turned down. Let ask you a couple very important questions..... #1 WHAT IF IT WERE YOUR CHILD,WOULD YOU DONATE THEN?? #2 AND IF IT WAS YOUR CHILD AND YOU CAME TO ME AND ASKED TO PUT YOUR CHILD ON THEIR DREAM HUNT OR FISHING TRIP, AND I HAD TO SAY TO YOU BOTH " I'm sorry we don't have enough money"....
Folks we are always in need of funding to continue doing what we do for these children who didn't ask for these diseases but have them none the less. I am an Ambassador for Hunt of a Lifetime here in West Virginia and we have had about 25 children from our state to benefit from this organization. We pay all food, lodging, travel, permits, taxidermy, meat processing, and one parent to accompany the child as a chaperone. It costs around $20,000.00 to $25,000.00 to put these children out on the trips. So I ask you to please donate what you can and as often as you can to our cause, it is also tax deductible. You can send check or money orders to the following two addresss: make them payable to HOAL or Hunt of a lifetime:
