I have a church that can get me almost 1/2 off the warmer we need. The cost is now $1750.00 would be great if someone could help us get this.

We are very, very busy here. More people are coming each time we have a food or meal handout. BP still has not put the money in the account that was suppose to help people out.

Quote that was posted to one of my updates this week

Royce Ogle-I am so proud of you and the folks there for doing what you can to help the helpless. For some reason that is foreign to me, many people will get all excited about feeding people in some 3rd world country and not give a hoot about the hungry in their own back yard. Go figure.
