Okay here is the deal: As everyone knows, or ought to know, the BigShizza is in school to become a social worker---the perfect job, I think for someone with a heart as big as his. Currently he is doing an internship with an organization that provides services to adults with substance abuse disorders. The organization is struggling in a lot of ways and because of that the BigShizza isn't able to provide even basic things like food when people come in for help. And because this is an intership, the BigShizza is paying to be there so doesn't have the resources to help as much as he would like.
I want to help BigShizza raise a little money to feed these folks even if it is only a for a week or two. As we all have experienced, BigShizza would give the shirt of his back to any one of us if we needed it, and I know it is really hard for him (being who he is) to not help more. So here is what I propose:
Let's each of us send $10 to BigShizza to help him buy food and other basic needs for his clients. If you can send more, that's okay too.
THIS IS A GREAT CHANCE FOR ALL THE NEWBIES WHO HAVE RECEIVED A "NEWSLETTER" FROM BIGSHIZZA TO SAY THANK YOU.
While none of us should need a reason to help out BigShizza, I'm going to sweeten the pot just a tiny bit--I am putting up a small My Father sampler as a prize (see picture below). Donate $10 you get one chance, donate $20 you get two and so on. I'll draw a number when I do the regular lottery at the end of the month using a list BigShizza provides.
But here is the deal (and I really need your help here) this is about helping for no other reason than to help. If BigShizza hints that he is going to retaliate or if he offers to put up a prize of his own, then we all have to stop donating. This is about us helping him without any expectations (with the exception of a crappy little sampler from me) Okay? Questions? I imagine that BigShizza will take either checks or paypall. PM him for details.
