I know someone - My wife and I sponsor a young man (actually I think he may be older than my wife and I...) who is currently working his way through Teen Challenge's drug addiction recovery program. One of his hobbies/interests is playing the guitar and I'd love to be able to offer him one of his own. I know that these guys have absolutely nothing left when they come to Teen Challenge so I am quite sure that he doesn't have one of his own.
Thanks for doing this! This has been my amazement since I started frequenting AGF - the genuineness and good spiritedness of the people who call this place home!

Merry Christmas Pete.

Very kind of you. It will certainly make the season for some lucky person.


Good Karma

The generosity of those on this forum never ceases to amaze me. I know a teenager who would be able to put it to great use. Count me in if you would.

Default You are SPECIAL
I always do something during the holidays, this year I am going to do something extra! This is a GREAT gesture! It makes me want to help those less fortunate.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Gee, I HOPE everyone really read your post. I thought this was for someone who REALLY needs one and CAN'T afford one.

Pete,
You are doing a really nice thing for someone. I'm praying that someone gets truly blessed by your generousity!!!

Thumbs up Pete
I don't need a guitar, nor do I know a guitar player that needs one...I just wanted to say how generous of you to offer one of your guitars!

May God Bless you and yours this Christmas.
