Title: Which Charity?
Post by: todd smith on February 26, 2010, 09:44:00 PM
Doug Schlabach produced a really nice traditional bowhunting DVD called, Lettin' Loose.  It's two hours of trad bowhunting and he even filmed many of the hunts himself.

Anyway, each year he donates 25% of the profits to a charity and he hasn't selected which charity he's going to send that 25% to this year.

We wanted to ask all you TradGanger'ers to see what you thought.

Who do you think Doug should donate that 25% to this year?

His website is:   http://www.lettinloose.com/lettinloose/The_DVD.html

You can post here who you suggest.  He needs to pick someone...  todd

St Judes is a good one.  The work they do for kids is great.

St.Jude's is a good choice, but I also have to put a plug in for Ronald McDonald House charities.  They really helped my wife and me out during a tough time when she gave birth to extremely premature twin boys.

trad gang ONLY endorses st. judes children's hospital - that's our recommendation.  we run the trad gang st' judes auction yearly and the membership has donated many many thousands of dollars to this date.

so yeah, definitely st. judes!

St. Jude's or ronald Mcdonald's Charities. There's nothing worse than having a sick kid.

I think that's great no matter the charity.   Mighty fine gesture for sure.

I know our gang here is really trying to bust $100,000 this year for the kids of St Judes Childrens Hospital so it would definately be more than welcome here.

Tip of the hat to ya either way       :notworthy:

I can't argue with St. Jude's.  It's a great charity.  I'm slightly partial (I guess that's the word I'm looking for) to the National MS Society.  My wife suffers from that disease.

St. Jude's since it is what Trad Gang support every year but commend Doug for his donation regardless of which charity he selects.

I have to go with "Catch-A-Dream".  They pick up where other's left off due to "pollitical correctness".  They fulfill the dreams of dying kids who's last wish is a hunting or fishing trip.  They cover a lot of ground, but they don't waste money on corporate expenses.  One small office located on the campus of MS State in Starkville, MS.   www.catchadream.org (http://www.catchadream.org)

Camp Cuervo Archery Club, Bagdad, Iraq.  Our American Heroes make it possible for everything else to exist, IMHO. We also support our Wounded Warriors.

Doug says it's gotta be a program like Hunt For Life or Catch A Dream that take the sick/dying kids on hunts. It was Benifit 4 kids last year. I love these programs. Love isn't stong enough really. If you know of another please let us know.
I support St Judes though and will be cruising the auctions like a Shark.
Thanks for any support

Doug
