Hey guys,

Ben and I were talking tonight, and he has been doing alot of volunteer work at a local nursing home. He has got four old gentlemen building models!! one of the guys is 83!.......they are at the Richwood nursing home in west virginia.

we`re looking for donataions of kits, supplies or any model related stuff. Anything you can donate will be a big help to them. These guys really enjoy building, and Ben would really appreciate it.

there are a couple things that they cant have....any glue has to be non-toxic, and they cannot have any type of spray paint. Ben has been painting the bodies for them at home.
any bottle paints must be water base....like the apple barrel, and folk art paints. Any kind of supplies at all that you guys can donate, brushes, #11 blades, anything you can think of, Just basic stuff, nothing fancy.

you can mail your kit/supply donations to Ben at this address

thanks guys, Ben and I appreciate your help!

Just now read this. Can't send out anything until next month due to being retired and on a very fixed income. What do you need most(models, supllies,etc.)? Will be more than happy to help where I can. Richard

Hi Ben. My daughter informed me that you got a box from here in Colorado last week. Did it really finally get there? Sorry I couldn't send more supplies than I did(look in the model box too). Richard

Are you still taking donations? If so, what are you in need of. I can't make any promises, but I will see what I can do now that my life seems to be "normalizing" a bit.
