I really hope we can do better than that with 3,000 pilots. I urge everyone to consider the long-term challenges ahead for Tony's wife. Please find it in your hearts to give as much as you can. This has been posted before, but if you don't have a paypal acct. you can mail a check to:

Has anybody found out of we can make up some fliers for the donation account and post them in the crew rooms? I am sure that would have to get ok'd by GS. Also, what about a toy/clothes/baby stuff drive for his kids for xmas. Put a box in each crew room for November and most of December.

Guys/Gals even $5 will help this family. Many of us are broke pilots, so what. Don't go to Starbucks for a couple of days. I kicked in $25.00. I didn't know Tony but I hope all of us can kick it in gear to help his family.

Fly safe....

Same here. Didnt know Tony either, but figured what's $25. Most of us go out on the overnight and spent that easily in one night at the bar. Lets all help this family out.

A cash donation to his family and some presents for his family would be very nice for his wife to help her get through the holiday season. This season will be one of the toughest for her. Please keep posted about the idea of where you can donate gifts.

GS said he would get back with me on the flyer's. He said the donations box's probably wouldn't fly, but he had to do some more checking.
