Hey guys been talking to a few of the guys about the idea of doing a charity event to raise cash for any good cause (popular vote wins) Typical ideas have been floated like babes and car washes but I am hoping we can do better? and no Sumo wrestler car wash aint gonna do it either. One thing that I was thinking was getting involved in Meals on wheels in some way?

feel free to float your ideas. time line on this is March 30th to finish planning the event and executing it by Mid May 2009.

let me know

You could see if you can set up a track day and have multiple clubs join in and if you can set it up with the track owner, the proceeds go to a foundation like Sick Kids.

Or even a BBQ event.

i like the trak idea,kinda similar to the year end cruise,all the money went to madd,and its the type of thing that sparks everyones interest

madd? out of all the organizations to give, madd was chosen?

have any of you heard the horror stories about them?

LancerGirl08

Well that track is in my city if y'all need info about it I can get it but ya... there's also Mosport and Shannonville ??

My 2nd passion to cars is animals but I doubt y'all would wanna do anything with that lol

rontam90

the way they spend their money has been in question for a few years now...im against drunk drivers and know they've made some great steps since Candice Lightner founded them. I wish I could help out every charity out there but when you have big executives pulling in big $$$ I just can't give to them, infact I would refuse to.

so since you like some stories heres a few for you, some are different others are based on the same findings.
