Well I was in the office yesterday morning listening to Dean's weekly blog as I always do but this one hit home. It brought me back to times in my life when things were not so great, like getting hand me downs for Christmas,used toys, to not getting anything at all, but our house was always filled with love. You see Jeremy and I were not born with silver spoons in our mouth, far from it and we have worked very hard to get where we are today in the REI world. So I sat back and listened to Dean's blog again, then BAM, I've got a crazy idea and here it is.
Jeremy and I will donate $100.00 to Dean's program to give a helping hand up to anyone who needs it. We are also isssuing a challenge to the Inner Circle Group Members to match our donations.
Our challenge goes out to these members
Joe and Stacy Jurek
Randy and Laura
Rina
Chip and Andrea
JB Toggs
Carol Stinson
and last but not least Matt Larson.
It is not a bunch of money but I think it is a small start to help someone less fortunate.
Hey guys, this is a grat time of the year filled with joy and love for some of us and yet not so much fun for those who need a helping hand up.
You don't have to be in the Inner Circle to donate and any amount will be very much appreciated I'm sure.
I will call Megan today to make arrangements and will post an address by tomorrow.
TRUST ME GUYS, I WILL WATCH WHO DONATES AND WHO BAILS OUT
Dean, I hope this helps you out with this GREAT, GREAT, thing that you are doing.
With much love to you all.....Jan and Jeremy
REALLY???
Who can talk the talk and walk the walk? Hmmm
This makes me think that even us ones who could use say 5,000 or so to get started could also give as well. Maybe I could give one hundred dollars too. Then maybe this can become something that could occur twice a year and two people could be helped. I think people should also apply and maybe everyone that gave money could vote for the winner. I could give and maybe I could also receive in the future. I would be willing to help someone with a small amount of money anyway. Just a thought that anyone could help and we could pool our money to help someone get a leg up.

Hey Jan,
I gladly accept this challenge as it is really no challenge at all I'm a firm believer in "the more you give the more you get" quote - both monetarily and in all other facets of life as well. I have many causes and people I support, and am always ready to spread that into the DG family. I'm sure Dean will select worthy recipients who will put it to good use. To quote one of the best Beatle lines "the love you take is equal to the love you make". Wishing the best of everthing to everyone in 2012!

To any and all if I offended anyone. This was not at all meant to be a closed door donation post. I offered up this challenge to the people that Jeremy and I have known for close to 4 years now. Our intentions although honorable has offended some people on this site it seems. So if any of you have an issue with me because of this, you have my deepest apology. If you can't except my apology than so be it. I will still continue to post about this great idea and will have an address for you all so you may forward your donations.
masseur07-After reading your posts for the last few years, I didn't think you had such a soft shell and were easily offended.
Jen, Tammy, Val I appreciate your offers very much and Thank You.
