Didn't know where to post this so hope General Discussion is okay.
As many of you know, Oklahoma got hit with a lot of tornadoes this past weekend with Moore being the worst area. We live in Edmond and had a couple of close calls on Sunday, which were enough to get in our storm shelter, but the closest touched down about 8 miles away. Moore got hit the next day and the damage is unfathomable especially with the loss of lives, many including children. A lot of people who lost everything are actually uninsured. Why they're uninsured is beyond me but it's not my place to judge or question given the circumstances. We've had a huge response from large companies and wealthy individuals giving significant monetary donations. Even a lot of small, local businesses are pitching in with free services, contributions, discounts, etc, which is simply awesome.
Ultimately, I've decided to donate 100 percent of my headlight restoration jobs for 30 days to help out. I'm in no way able to match the contributions from the larger guys but any little bit helps. The favor I ask is this (and I hope it's not against the forum rules): to share my donation post on my Facebook business page if you're on Facebook or Twitter. You may not be local but someone else down the line who sees it may. Thank you and please keep our Oklahoma families in your prayers.
