Bump for a good cause. Donated.

Great idea - donated! And we know exactly where it's going.

Bump going to donated

Very cool @xerico. Free bump

Matched the current total. Thank you Marcus. These guys are going to need a lot of help. I was born and raised in south Texas (Victoria, TX). Let's go guys. Let's get this thing built up. -- Craig

I don't have a lot to give, but I'll try and find some clean clothes I don't need and whatnot and bring them on wednesday. I'd really prefer to give cash, as it's a hassle to transport stuff that far, but I'd rather do something than nothing.

Donation sent.

Just sent donation hopefully to the right Marcus.

From Doug Moe. Marcus M Trevino, LLC ?

Thanks Marcus, keep it up!

Like you said, every little bit helps.

Maybe someone will sell a spare pin and add that to the donation! And buyer will feel okay about paying top dollar - just a thought.

Fantastic idea! Thank you for doing this.

Donation sent,
Thanks for doing this Marcus

Thanks to everyone that has donated. My house was spared but my girlfriends father's house flooded. He was affected by the release of the Addicks reservoir and looks to be flooded for several weeks and possibly months....until the level of the reservoir is stable. I have watched numerous floods happen in the Houston area but seeing a flood of this scale is hard to comprehend. Help is needed for thousands of people who have lost everything so every bit helps.

Thanks Marcus for setting this up for folks to help out!

Just another great reason why all my NIBs have come from GEX.

I'm going to do my best to keep this thread on page 1. Bump

I'm donating today. Great idea.

Helping others Is the key to happiness I think. And the world truly can become a better place.

Done. A small amount for a good cause. Best of luck helping.

There's an awful lot of empty hangers in our closet now. Thanks for doing the legwork to help folks out, Marcus.

Allen is one of the nicest people you will ever meet.

Wow that Sucks. Flood insurance program is a bit wonky in this country. Not eligible unless the federal government thinks you are in a floor area..

Thanks to all of you!
Im here in Richmond/Rosenberg. The Brazos river is supposed to crest Friday morning. We have been very concerned that the river would flood our house. As it stands now, it looks like we will be ok, but there are many others not so lucky. Just down the street houses are within within a foot of having water in them. Its bad because you know its coming, and all you can do is get stuff off the floor. Many people we know have left their homes and are in hotels. These are not the people that need help. Its the ones that have nowhere to go, and no support from family. Xerico, I'm sure you will be a good steward of this account and apply it where it will do the most good. Thanks again! Donation sent.

A few quid from your friends in England - I feel for you guys.

Marcus Trevino never fails to amaze me when is comes to how genuinely kind and caring he truly is. I have known this man for years and he truly is amazing. It's a honor knowing him.

I like venom Kingwood which is north of Houston. Kingwood like a lot of areas is pretty much destroyed. I went swimming in my sons high school yesterday, it's above my head. But, the good news is that I rescued a armadillo that was about to give up. My home and family are better than ok we had no water and we kept electricity throuout the ordeal but I can walk to homes that are totally under water. It is terrible. I give thanks to God for sparing my home and family.

Thank you Marcus for being the person that you are and thank you for helping the people in need. I don't think you can get to my area but if you can call me and I'll help you help them.

Marcus - how can non-Paypal people contribute???

Marcus,Just sent a little help,I hope things work out for all down there.

That situation is so very awful. Donated.

Just found this thread.
It is true. Both of the Beaumont city water pumps failed last night. No water in the city for days now as pumps are submerged.
The are evacuating our hospitals as I type this.
Just when we thought It could not get any worse.
Leon Moncla.

This is just great. Nice to be able to help. From afar.

I really like that pinball helped here. Xerico thanks again.

Armadillos being saved. Ivenever even seen an armadillo in the wild. Pretty cool.

It is amazing to see the people stepping up to help others. In these disasters.

The triumph of the human spirit.

Tha armadillo was cute. He was holding on to the water cutoff valves on the school wall. I grabbed him by the tail and put him in the kayak and he made a huge stink and jumped out. When I tried to get him again I turned over. I couldn't touch so I had to swim. I put him in the kayak and my son pulled me to a shallow spot so I could get back in. Whenwe got to dry land he jumped out and took off without a thank you. Surprisingly that was the most exiting thing that happened to me. Now my son went back and went in the school and we got a email really quick saying stay out of the school till they say we can come back. Oooops.
To any pinside that was flooded out you have my sympathies and if you are in kingwood you are welcome to come by. If you have nowhere to go I have a garage with A/C with 6 pins in it that you could stay in for a few days.

Sent what I could. What an amazing thing you are doing. Really pulling for TX out here in socal. You are in our thoughts
