Jubilee (Greek Peak) barter/swap/trade/give-away - FUNDRAISER idea

[vtlandrover]

I've given away Land Rover parts in exchange for a donation to a food shelf... since we are invading a community in central New York, it seems a good time and a good idea to give back to those who won't benefit from the influx to the local business community. I wish I had thought of this earlier, but am thinking that it wouldn't be too much of a put-out to cordon off an area for giving away perfectly usable and "good" condition parts that are either too heavy or too awkward in shape to post "for sale." I have a perfectly good factory bumper and pair of three-point seatbelts, among other Defender items...

If left on the ground and taken, there could be a secure jar for collecting cash donations. If no one wants what I have to offer, it's on the honor system for me to come by on Sunday and take away. Carry in; carry out, if you will. If it raises $10, $100, or $1,000, it seems worthwhile.

Anyone in?

Any who is going to be responsible for cleaning up dumped parts on Sunday?

That’s no way to help us return down the road.

As I said... the honor system. Again, wishing I had come up with the idea earlier so that it would be seamless and not impactful to people like you, who have already given a lot of time and energy to the event.

Not a lot of interest here or on defendersource, so I'll keep my parts in the garage and make a donation to Hospicare and Pallative Services and/or United Way directly.

Looking forward to seeing you this weekend, Chris!
