Sandy Hook Elementary LIF

Thanks for setting this up..In, and emailed.

 

Just did the same thing. As a parent of a 6yo boy and 2yo girl i cannot imagine what these families are going through. A financial contribution is the least i can do. The morning of the shooting my son's school had their practice emergency drill for events like this one. Pretty sobering for everyone to say the least. Thanks for doing this Brad, much appreciated!

 

This is an amazing idea and seeing the responses to this thread makes me feel happy to be a part of the BA community. Donation made and email sent.

 

I will add a box of NY/CT goodness to this. Please let me know what I can do to help out.

The box will include but not limited to:
CL Nor Easter batch 5
CL Golden Delicious
NEBC Stout Trooper
NEBC Sea Hag
Sloop brewing line up of bottles
And more to be added in....

 

Damn, after seeing all the people adding boxes to this, I have to donate more now, so I don't feel like a schlub.

 

Just wanted to add in that this happened less than 40 minutes from my house. I know people that were personally invoved/connected to/impacted by this horrific event. I have felt helpless in ways to help out. It may not be much but this makes me feel that in some way I am assisting the people who have had their lives shattered. A preemptive thank you to everyone that makes a donation to this cause and a huge thank you and internet hug to cfh64 for giving me a way to provide sme sort of assistence to the ones in need.

 

Penguin - I'd be happy to throw in a bottle to your box as well if that's ok with you. Cheers to you cfh64 for creating this LIF. Really incredible to see the amount of generosity/involvement from the BA Community for such a terrible & tragic event. I'll be contributing later tonight after I look into the different charities.

 

Donation sent. This is a great thing you are doing. This might be our greatest national tragedy outside of 9/11 and something that hits home for all of us whether or not you have your own kids. I cant imagine what those families are going through.

 

I just donated to the family fund for $10 I wish I could donate more, great idea about this LIF

 

Just spent $700 on a crown, so i cant afford anything this week...but once i get paid next week i will for sure donate.

 

Donated and emailed it to you. This a great thing you guys are doing.

 

I'm in.

So much generosity. I can't believe this is technically in the trading forum. I hope some of this good-will leaks out to the others.

 

Did this one get taken down?

Doesn't seem to exist and when I do a search on eventbrite it says it doesn't exist.

 

Link works for me. That's what I donated to.

 

Hopefully this will drum up some more activity via the Beer Talk forum:

As I now see that the MN folks have responded in multiple ways to Penguin3200 (myself included before I saw the number of responses) I think there are enough of us to put together another box. I'll donate a couple bottles, but I've never shipped beer before so I'd like to have someone else ship it.

 

I can't believe the amount of generosity that I am reading about here! It makes me so happy and puts so much of my faith back in humanity. All of you, cfh64 and donators should be commended for what you are doing.

 

This happened 10 minutes from my home. Although I'm in my mid 20's and don't have any kids, my mom is a teacher. I grew up down the street from one of the teachers who was killed; her funeral service was held today in the church I used to walk by every day as a kid.

I'm not normally a sentimental guy, but this event really hit me hard. Thank you to everyone who donated, and thank you cfh64 for starting this.

 

Can't do it for it from work, but will do donate when I get home. Being a father of 2 myself I couldn't even imgaine what these families are going thru. Just thinking of it turns my stomach.
