A bike for Malachi - Update #2

I can't thank you all enough for all your support over the past two days in the fundraiser for Malachi's Special Bike! I'm happy to announce we raise $330 dollars for Malachi's bike! This will help make a nice dent in the total amount they still need to get.

The bike costs $ 3522

They've currently raise $1885

We will contribute $330 

Bringing the total they still need to around 1300 dollars. 

Malachi's mom has created a Facebook page

Malachi's Christmas Wish

I think it would be great if you just stopped by the page and let the family know you donated and leave them a friendly note of encouragement or wish them a Merry Christmas. You'll be able to follow the progress and hopefully we'll see him get this bike!  

If your local to the OKC Metro any donations can be taken to First Fidelity Bank in Heather or Malachi Trent's name or mailed to Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation, 5300 N. Independence Ave. Suite 100, Oklahoma City, OK 73112.

A Bike for Malachi

So far since last night we've raise just shy of $250 dollars and sold 50 listings! That's over 100 patterns

I've sent them allover the USA to Australia, Canada and the Philippines 

It's been exciting to see your involvement and sweet messages. I can't tell you what this will mean to the Trent family . 

We still have a long way to go raising the funds (around 1500) and my special will only run til midnight! 

I'd really like to raise another $250 more by tonight! Will you help us reach that goal. 

To donate you can purchase any two patterns from my shop for $5.00 all this goes to Malachi

Here is the listing 

If you don't crochet maybe you can just donate a few dollars. There is a link on the 1st blog post to do so. 

You can also send it as a gift to my paypal account. just use the contact tab to the side or above and let me know so I can get you my email address. 

I've had a few other shops offer auctions and pattern deals as well. I'm looking forward to seeing this grow till the goal is met. You can see more details on my Facebook page! 

I'll give a running total tomorrow of all we've raised! 

THANK YOU!!!

A Bike for Malachi for Christmas

I've been wanting to do something for someone super special for Christmas and The Lord laid it on my heart to help a very special family. I've known this sweet family for over ten years before they were married and blessed with there six adorable children(we went to bible college together.) They are a very sweet and loving family and would do anything for you! so I want to do this for them.


 One of their sweet little boys wants a bike for Christmas but it's a very special bike that is going to take some work for the family to get. 




Here is a little bit about Malachi from his Mom Heather:  

Malachi is a 7 year old energetic boy that has a smile that can melt your heart. He was born with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. Malachi has undergone 3 open heart surgeries and many other procedures. Due to the lack of oxygen through his body and complications from a heart catherization he now has CP. He doesn't let anything get in his way and always tries to keep up with everyone! Malachi receives therapy twice a week outsourced and through the school he attends. We would love for him to have a bike to ride with his siblings! His bike is a special bike that suits his personal needs. It keeps him stable yet let's him have the freedom he desires. (don't worry there is a parent brake in the back!) The final cost of the bike is $3522.35. In the last few days we have been able to raise $1800! Any donations can be sent to First Fidelity Bank in Heather or Malachi Trent's name or Jim Thorpe Rehabilitation 5300 N. Independence Suite 100, OKC, OK 73112. 


I really want to help them raise the other half of the money they need so he can have this bike for Christmas. From now til Midnight Thursday only I'm going to have a listing in my Artfire shop - Called Patterns for Malachi - for $5.00 I will let you have two patterns of choice from my shop! 


You can choose to make a larger donation but you'll need to email me and I'll get you my paypal information. If you have a paypal account you can send me money direct and there are no fees on my end.  I will personally make the donation from us on Monday and let you know how much we raised! I'm so excited and I hope you will be able to help too.


I know not everyone can donate but if you have other ways you'd like to help feel free but let me know.
