���With all due respect to hurricane victims and their families, wouldn't it be better to have people give directly to an appropriate organization, even if the amount is considerably less than they would spend on a vendor?� This business of reaching their goal "if 1 million people (consumers) would purchase their Ink and Paper supplies through AccessInk.org" sounds pretty fishy to me.� And what is "the suggested donation amount"?
���Forgive me if I sound cynical, but when you've�as many spams and scams as I have�-- especially with the word "Jesus"�slapped on them, which really makes me mad --�you tend to�be a bit less trusting of some random email from "Reverend Siam Rogers" who wants you to buy his office supplies for the greater good. My apologies for continuing this off-topic thread... Peter Brunone From: "Chris Burge" [EMAIL PROTECTED] I know that this doesn't fit with the guidelines of the group but I thought that since this is for helping those in need that it would be ok for a one time post. Plus, I've been a member here for a while and I'm not the type to just do this kind of thing. To be blunt, I'm sending this e-mail for a ministry I've been working with that is trying to raise money for Hurricane Victims. I'm sending the below Press Release to those that people that I know in a hopes that they will be able to share it with others that might have an immediate need for ink. Again, I apologize if this offends anyone. I just have a lot of friends and family down there that are in serious need of help and very few people have the discretionary funds to just donate. Thanks, Chris Help AccessInk.org Help Hurricane Victims AccessInk.org, a Georgia based nonprofit is offering consumers a way to purchase Printer Ink and Paper supplies at a significant discount and at the same time contribute directly to disaster relief for hurricane victims.
