AR Build to benefit an a 3yr old with Leukemia (updated)

[Hasselhoss]

NO MORE PARTS NEEDED
THANKS ODT

Let's build an AR to raise money for a 3yr old girl with leukemia. I was approached by a friend of mine for some help. He has a son with leukemia and works with family's that have similar straits. A friend of his, that is a cop in Butt's Co, just found out 3 weeks ago that their 3yr old grand daughter has leukemia. In an effort to help them out I would like to propose that we build an AR or two and sell/auction them. To start, lwe have two billet AR lowers. So... who's in? Do you have any parts or $ to donate toward this? What are your thoughts? Any ideas?

The little girl is the granddaughter of a Butts County LEO.

This is the Bio for the little girl:

My name is Ashlynn Geringer and I’m a very outgoing, spunky, OCD three year old little girl. I love Minnie Mouse, Dora the Explorer, my blanket that I’ve named “see”, and Chap Stick. On August 30, 2013 I was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. (ALL) Around August 26, 2013, it all started with a normal head cold. My mom and older sister Kailynn had the same cold. A few days later my mom noticed I had two sores on the inside of my cheeks that looked like I had bitten myself. My mom kept a close eye on those sores, making sure they would heal. Two days later my daddy came home from work when my mom told him I hadn’t moved off the couch all day and wasn’t eating. My daddy came over to look at me and used a flashlight to see the sores in my mouth and he noticed I had blood blisters all over my tongue. My mom took me to the Emergency Room where they ran blood tests, flu test, strep test, and chest x-rays on me. After a long wait (3 hours) the doctor finally came back into our room to tell my mother the devastating news. There was a possibility that I had leukemia and that they were calling for an ambulance to transport us to Scottish Rite children’s hospital. Once arriving to Scottish Rite they ran more blood tests and it was then confirmed that I had Leukemia. My mom broke down crying. This news was very devastating to her. The oncologist came in to talk to my mom, Nonnie, and papaw about my diagnosis. They sent me to the PICU floor as I was very weak and needed to be stabilized. It was all a very scary experience for me, my parents, Nonnie, and papaw. I was finally moved to the Aflac floor where I would begin my treatments. I had a port surgically placed, a spinal tap, and a bone marrow biopsy on September 3. I began my chemo treatments that day as well. And so my 3 year journey battling this disease began…

Do a raffle at 5 or 10 bucks a pop. Cap it at a level which doubles the value of the lowers. Put me in for 2 tickets. Both the wife and I have fought the bear (Cancer) We were lucky. We are both cancer free.

Unfortunately I think a raffle is out of the question unless you establish a non profit for it. I could be wrong and hope that I am, but I know I wanted to raffle off a custom 10/22 to raise money for a scholarship at North Georgia College in Dahlonega that was started in honor of a friend of mine and I was unable to do so without a non profit. I do hope you find a good way to raise some money though.

Raffle is a good idea! I would be in for a couple of said raffle tickets also if that is the path you decide

 

[BlackRifler42]

I've got a stripped upper if you get to a point where you might can build these up.

 

[Hasselhoss]

Not sure on the legalities of a raffle but that might be worth pursuing.

BlackRifler42, dude you are awesome. I hope something like that ends up coming of this. I'm willing to pitch in but I'm no builder.

Might be correct. I'm not a lawyer but I'm sure we have 1 or 2 here.

Establishing a nonprofit is not to hard. My grandfather had one when he had a kidney and liver transplant.

But it that doesn't work, collect donations at a meet and greet, and find a funny contest to see who wins the lowers.
The winner would not be based on donations, but by the contest.

 

[Hasselhoss]

So where is the best deal on a parts kit to build out the lowers?

 

[will4me]

I have a PSA Lower parts kit I would give to this send me a PM and I will send it to you ASAP.
