As many BK members have heard Snakebit31 lost his house to a tornado this week. BK will be sending him a prepaid debit card to help him get a needed supplies for his family. My goal is at least $200 sent by BK so if every BK gives less then $1 we can easily get to gather $200 quickly.

To donate please use the donate button on the top left of the website. We will use all donations in the next 48 hours to support our member in need.

Thank you to everyone for your help of a BK in need.

What is left of his house:

We are already over 1,000. I'll be honest I'm surprised as often we don't even bring in $200 a month to cover our expenses.

priorities, people in need come before our own wants.

EDIT: if that an ongoing issue i suggest you add a monthly counter to the front page saying how much you need a month vs how much has come in for the month.

Luke,

If you can't get it to him locally by mail. Let me know Reading is just a short drive for me or I'm sure our county commissioner who is from Reading can get it to him some how. I sent a huge box of shoes and other clothes up there yesterday. Also I heard today that mail is being brought in and distributed. Emergency Management is going to turn things back over to the city in a few days. Also learned today that both KC Chiefs and KC Royals donated 35,000 dollars each. The has some kind of low interest fund that Reading residents may qualify for.

Like I said if your having trouble getting it to him. PM me his name and I will have one the SO guys get it to him or take it there myself.

Let me know.

K

You know, BKs, on days like this i'm very proud to be in a family like ours.
My donation is not huge but i gave all i can with my heart and soul.
I hope all BK members feel like i feel right now.... a tiny little thing in a strong whole.
Makes us feel safe and proud knowing that we can count on the family.

Thanks to LadyHawk who had bring the news to the community.
And thanks to Luke for that fast response and donation organisation.

It's always the help that we dont see coming that gives us the biggest push to continue.

Luke,

Is there anyway that you can get a message back from Snakebit to hear how he and is family is doing and post it for us all to read?
While money is certainly needed - is there anything else he needs that we could help with?

Regards...

out standing. that is plenty for two people to live on for a few weeks while the insurance gets it act together.
i hope in a few months when his life is back to normal we can find out how this helped him. good job to everyone.

I think those who live near him should try and visit him the next couple of weeks...if this happened to someone in Cali i would travel for a weekend up to northern cali. This would really lift his and his sons spirits.
