Hi Mpc. A couple questions re: this fund.. You write that you would like to "double this number"; do you have a particular goal in mind? How long will this scholarship fund go on for? What are the criteria for disposition? How does a potential recipient "qualify"? You mention that you are collecting 'items' as well as cash donations; are you putting together a library of sorts for these young collectors? I am asking because it looks like a lot to keep track of if it is an ongoing scholarship. If these questions have been answered elsewhere, I haven't seen them (sorry). This is a very kind gesture to the Connor family. LucyRay
I would like to get as many people involved in this as possible it,s a great cause All donations will be sent to "The Young Notables" an organization that introduces Our hobby to youngsters, as far as a time frame, i,am trying to get things done Just as quick as possible, we had one member that sent in baseball cards to Auction them off as well as junk silver roughly about 30 coins! Excellent!! I will be updating this thread as time goes on and would like to make one donation Along with a plaque in approx 30 days atleast that,s my goal. As far as a ongoing thing i,am working with Frank at t.y.n to see where we go from Here. Thanks, Rusty
I appreciate all your effort on behalf of the Young Notables Rusty. Thanks for the great idea and the work you're putting into it to make it a success. My contribution is in the mail. Bruce
Rusty, I won some auctions from Heritage this week and will want to donate a note from that. I'll let you know when they arrive so that you can expect a timeframe to receive my contribution.
