I might add that Amanda can take donations thru paypal.

 

What is Amanda's PayPal address? I will not be able to attend a fundraiser but I would like to make a contribution for Rocky's trip and PayPal makes it easy.

Several people have inquired about making a contribution to help send Rocky to Italy. Here's the scoop!

 

Hello,

 

You can make donations for Roque’s trip by mailing to:

 

AGIF

PO Box 6544

Kansas City, KS 66106

 

And IN MEMO please write “For Roque’s Trip”

 

 

Best Regards,

Christina Enriquez

 

 

I know I for one will be sending a donation!

Hello everyone,

 

A small news, after 21 in Bologna, Rocky will be with us April 23 for the "Colonna della libertà" translated "Column of freedom"! We will go to Verona with a column of military vehicles and Rocky will be head of the column, in the top of a Sherman!!!

Will be two great days for us and we hope they are for him!

 

I'll post the photos in the following days!

 

Enry

It's been a while since I've made my donation but I think I got some kind of flyer in my email for an event and I contacted her about making a donation without attending the event. I don't have it anymore.

 

Her name is "Amanda Cherry-Haus". Sorry I'm not much help :(

Rocky arrived in Italy and here's one of the pics Matteo took. I think this speaks volumes. This is Montecassino.

 

God love ya Rocky. You made it. I can only imagine what was going through your head...
