I want to post about something and try to get the word out about a terrible thing that happened to a good friend of a fellow Rusty Pickle Chef. The man was a victim of random violence - shot 5 times in the chest and is now paralyzed from the chest down. He has a family - 9 children to support. Can you imagine? My heart goes out to this family and I want to get the word out as much as possible.
The owners of Rusty Pickle - being the amazingly generous and kind-hearted people they are - have set up a few things in order to help this poor family. Lance is going to teach some classes and donate every single cent to the family - and they are also donating $500 worth of Rusty Pickle product to a raffle being held at Legacy Scrapbooking in which every penny will go to this family.
I urge you to read this story and do what you can to help. If you can't donate financially, please help me spread the word. Post about it on your blog...post about it on message boards. For the scrappers out there - a $5 or $20 donation for the raffle could reward you with $500 worth of Rusty Pickle loot! Just link people directly to the following site where they can get the story and details about how to help:

Go get your raffle ticket...or if you are able to attend one of Lance's classes - check out the details posted by Mrs. Pickle herself, Tasha, right under Tricia's post. Or do both! Please help.
