Fundraiser for Wayne McLeod Barbara Peters - Galeria Vallarta | |
February 20, 2012 |
To the Friends of Wayne McLeod
For those of you who haven't heard, our good friend Wayne is fighting a (so far) winning battle with lung cancer. He has no insurance and his treatment up to now has more than drained any funds he had available.
Wayne is looking at well over one-hundred thousand pesos in upcoming medical costs (mostly radiation therapy). Several of us have taken it upon ourselves to raise as much money as quickly as possible to help cover these expenses.
Wayne has given an awful lot to this community over the years via his fifteen-year editorship at Vallarta Today. Let's give something back. Time is of the essence.
Here’s how you can help:
1. Donations
• A direct deposit into his BANORTE account. Wayne Douglas McLeod, Account # 0805860029
• A peso or dollar check made out to Wayne. You can drop off the check at Lucy's Cucu Cabaña, 295 Basilio Badillo, Old Town Vallarta, telephone 222-1220.
2. Attend the "Silver Lining Benefit for Wayne McLeod"
On Saturday, March 3, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm at Nacho Daddy, 180 Basilio Badillo, Old Town Vallarta.
Cost of entry is 250 pesos at the door, or 200 pesos in advance. Tickets may be purchased in advance at Lucy's Cucu Cabaña.
For the price of admission you will be given one meal and a drink. There will be a raffle, as well as a live auction and a silent auction of paintings.
3. Helping with the benefit
You can help with the benefit by volunteering to gather raffle prizes, quality paintings, and BY SPREADING THE WORD.
For any questions, please feel free to contact Gil Gevins or Lucy Muñiz. They can be reached at 222-4839 or by e-mail at sorryiaskedgil@yahoo.com.
