Charity donation?

[blasterboy2001]

I think that bf should do something for charity. Now here's what I had in mind...
People can donate parts to a central hub(volunteers???) for assembly. We put together everyone's excess parts in order to make a pretty badass Blaster. Then we donate to a charity of choice, or sell it (or raffle it off) and use the money to improve upon the site. Just a suggestion... Please provide input!

thats not to bad of an idea donating to charity is always good aslong as its legit..And it would be pretty cool to give some poor kid a fourwheeler that would make me smile knowing someone got something they would never own other wise cool idea

that would be cool but we woudl need a lot of money

 

[bigdblaster]

But what I'm sayin' is that most people on here have leftover and/or excess parts. Like stock take-offs and stuff. I've got a set of stocker a-arms and a stock swingarm I'll donate. Ohh, and maybe bars and a headlight assembly...ALL LEGIT TAKE-OFFS!!! Steering stem, misc nuts and bolts. I dunno who's going to assemble it... Maybe an incentive for the volunteer? Hardest part I think is going to find a frame thats not too hot to touch(lol). Input is needed, definitely should do it though. This will be what seperates us from the other forums!!!

thats a good idea and all but, we have 1500 some members, and only about 13 forum supporters, it cost 10 bucks to become a supporter, u wanna donate parts which is cool but how much is shipping costs?????more than 10 bucks i bet! so if we could get say 500 people to become suppoters, DO THE MATH! we could have awesome givaways of really expensive things,mabe even donations like u said, just my thought!

[blasterboy2001]

The thing about the frame is I don't know how legitimate it is. I bought it from the recycling center that I work at, but I'm not sure if it's stolen or what... Can I call it in to the State Police or what?

Do you guys think a poor kid/person might need other things first before a fourwheeler, sh*t how are they going to afford the gas($3.75 a gallon) plus oil and all the maintenance. Plus where the hell is a poor person going to ride it? They arent going to have the land much less a truck and trailer to go anywhere, better to assemble the blaster, sell it and use money to buy things that REAL poor people need...FOOD, BILLS PAID, CLOTHING!!! Somebody's been waking and baking a little too much around here

 

[blastermaster85]

If you've got nothing nice to say about this topic, then no offense, Shut the f**k up. Read the entire post before you throw your unwanted negative comments around. Topics such as "RAFFLES...SELLING IT AND DONATING THE MONEY..." are posted earlier on in this thread. If you don't want to take part in it, that's fine, but don't sh*t on our ideas. Oh and by the way, why don't you support the forum by signing up for it? It's 10 dollars, and I can guarantee you've gotten at least 10 dollars worth of information out of this site.

Anyway, to the people that are "pro-charity"... Let's get some parts together!
