Crowdfunding page set up to help a couple Bronco Brothers chase their dream...

[englewoodcowboy]

Wow, sorry to see some negativity from the group on this. I would love to donate but as is I am scrounging every penny I have to finish mine in time for April. This is the first I have seen this thread and Thank You to Drew for trying to help. I understand you are not asking for charity in a humanitarian sense but there was no reason for the blasting from the uber moral crowd either. Racing is not cheap and they rely on sponsorship to get it done. Don't let the actions of a few taint the idea of helping out.

Hey here is another bump for the fundraiser. Nice stuff you are giving away .

I like the "shaky" decal.

 

[Broncitis]

Thanks guys. I know not everyone is in a position to part with cash, and that some simply will not be interested enough to do so, but positive encouragement is always appreciated even without a donation.

Update:
Were now at $1310 with the matching funds!

I just called and spoke with John who is one of the pit crew members. Neither he or Travis have been online in the last few days due to working round the clock to remove snow from the blizzard, but I gave him an update and his was really stoked and said they really appreciate the support!

Only a few more $10+ donations and I will by having the drawing for the winner of the OBR 50th Anniversary embossed metal sign.

Next drawing will be for a Hattchet Racing crew jersey.

Hump day bump.

 

[Broncitis]

Update: $1515 so far, over 3/4 of the way to the goal!

All the matching funds from Mid-Atlantic Early Broncos and Old Broncos Rule have been claimed, so the final stretch is up to individual contributions to see if we can reach the $1966 goal!

We're only one $10+ donation away from pulling a winner for the 50th Anniversary embossed metal shop sign.

C'mon, who will it be that lets us pick a winner tonight so we can get the next item posted that for the next drawing?

Do you make the wobbly Bronco sign for sale? Or just a one time deal? Thanks

 

[Broncitis]

Wow, proof that lighting can strike twice!

Congrats to Stephen Stewart (WPAEB), one of our 2, two-time donors!

So much for being anonymous Steve! (as the campaign organizer, I can see who the anonymous donations are from, but they do not show up to others when you look at who has donated).

Steve has won both the reproduction Stroppe "shaky Bronco" racer decal and one of the OldBroncosRule.com Bronco 50th Anniversary 16" embossed metal signs!

Steve and his brother Brian are often a very big winners at the raffle at our annual East Coast Bronco Roundup events. I might have see if I can get some of their luck to rub off on me!

We made that as part of a few of the graphics I assisted with for the racer, so while I was as it, we did a couple extras. I may do some more, but right now, I only have two others left that are spoken for already.

The next items up to be raffled off as part of the #4873 Hattchet Racing KOH support fundraiser:

A race crew jersey (winner will have their choice of L, XL, or 2XL) and one Bronco 50th Anniversary decal (sorry, no ammo included, just for size reference,)

One of the next five supporters who donates $10 or more will be chosen once we get the 5th donation.

Although I don't personally know Travis, I do know Thomas Kincer. And I will say that Thomas gives away a lot more than he takes. How many of you have been broke down on the trail or at an event? If Thomas was nearby I would be willing to bet he had a part in fixing your Bronco. I know he personally spends hours on the phone with people giving away free advice and helps out anyone whenever he can, whether your needs are bronco related or not he is a guy you can count on. So let's help this crew win the KOH for the Bronco community.

 

[Broncitis]

Chad was the 4th who donated out of 5 for the latest drawing, and I just had a random number picked over off the Ford Bronco Alliance FB group and #4 was the winner, so congrats to Chad Larrance who is the winner of the #4873 Hattchet Racing crew jersey and 50th decal!

And thanks for your donation and support for their team as well!

Campaign update:
$970 in individual donations + $750 in matching MEB and OBR funds for a total of $1720!

87% of the way to our $1966 goal!

I knew the Bronco community still had it, we were just off to a rocky start!

 

[tasker]

a show of support is not taking away from other fine charities....good luck guys!!

Very true, and you have a nicer way of saying that than my "for those who can walk and chew gum at the same time reference earlier in the thread" LOL ;D

Thanks for the support Randy, and everyone else who has donated and or offered their positive encouragement to these guys!

UPDATE: $1790 (with matching funds not shown on the gofundme site), 91% of the way to the goal!

Ask and you shall receive! ;D

I called John who is on the team and he started a thread tonight. I think most of the team are lurkers and not used to posting too much, so we will have to encourage them to keep with it by check in out often for updates!
