Default Beyond the Beach Children's Foundation donations

We, at Beyond the Beach Children's Foundation are now in the position to have donations accepted in the Punta Cana area.

Because of the recent devastation and death caused in the Southwest part of the DR by Tropical Storm Noel, we are concentrating our efforts and asking our supporters to concentrate their efforts on items which will assist in these relief efforts.

If you are so inclined to give a cash donation I would direct you to the International Red Cross at:

Red Cross Red Crescent - Make a donation

If you would like to bring clothes (especially children's summer tee shirts, shorts, jeans, etc. from the Sally Ann Store or Value Village) or baby items like disposable diapers, baby foods, etc. we can arrange to have them picked up at your resort.

When in Punta Cana you may set up an appointment to meet Mikefisher of Mike's Marina Fishing Charters S.A. in the lobby of your resort and he will pick up your kind donations. He may be reached by e-mail at
HelpKids@MikesMarina.info or by phone at 809-729-5164

Please give hem a couple of days notice so he can be sure to set aside time to meet you or if he has a schedule conflict he will arrange for someone else to meet you.

Thanks for thinking of the kids!

May God strike me if I am lying....

I was thinking, a little while ago: "I wonder if Hlywud was given the go-ahead and will start the support thread I askedd about before I leave to Mexico"....

And then, STUPID ME, you started it a few days ago and I missed it!!.

Ok, here it goes.....

What if the person already sent a few donations BUUUUT wants to send clothes BUUUUT he/she lives in the US?.

Well, the person is not going to Punta Cana so I guess it's a 'no go'.

Where is this person going inthe DR, you never did say.

We still may possibly be able to assist with donations.

The previous 2 posts have been removed, there is a misunderstanding of what transpired between all paties in this thread.

Ok, perhaps I need to explain myself better....

The person is not in the DR and will not be going to the DR any time soon and I was just wondering if there's a person from BTBCF, in the US, Canada or wherever, to whom he can send clothes (and then that person, from BTBCF, in turn, take it to the DR, if they have plans to go there). That's all.

Btw: It would be nice if you send that MikeFisher guy a PM telling him that you and I have never had a problem and that all I am doing to trying to help.

Although he did called me a pain in the axx, (which I am but not in this case) I, for some reason, didn't take offense to that, just when he said that I was attacking you.

Anyways, perhaps he lost his glasses and didn't know what he was reading, whahaha!!.

Miguel,

My wife and I leave on Nov. 24th for Punta Cana and have lots of baggage capacity. If someone can get stuff to me before then I can mule it to the appropriate people for distribution.

Have them or you PM or e-mail me.

First of all, sorry for my last post and for the the one deleted, which was directed at that MikeFisher guy for saying a bunch of nonsense to me, especially that I was attacking Hlywud on this thread (I still don't know how in hell he came up with that conclusion).

Anyways, thanks for the info and I will make sure to send you a box of clothes when I get back from my vacation....I will also send you the Ipod speakers I told you about.

Thanks for the understanding, Mike now knows that you support us 100%.

Thanks to fireguy for stepping in to take donations, initially I was not certain of the situation. Now we know and it can be looked after.

Miguel, we appreciate your support.
