If you're seeing this for the first time please consider subscribing to this thread and joining our little group.
If you see a good cause that needs attention please PM me the details and we'll see what we can do.
I was discussing this with another member via PM, and he encouraged me to post it up here, so I will.
If @Lowlight has no issues with it, and the thread generates enough interest, perhaps it can evolve into a sticky of some kind.
Something I have been giving a lot of thought to lately is how we, the responsible shooting community, can do more to promote ourselves as good people and positive influences, combating the growing stereotypes portrayed by CNN, MSNBC, and their ilk.
Preaching to the choir in these forums is all well and good, but are we really helping our brand outside of our own walls?
With that in mind, the idea of "Good Guys With Guns" came to mind.
Us, and any who choose to join us, giving together, in small amounts each, to help small and worthy causes in our own communities and AO's.
Small amounts that on their own would be helpful, but largely unnoticed - But together, in unison, as a team, we can do some great things and promote ourselves as good, decent, caring people.
So here's a project to which I just recently contributed. It's been a few days, and the project looks like it could use a boost.
So if you feel compelled to do so, consider making a small contribution and including a reference to our project and its origins - "Sniper's Hide - Good Guys With Guns"
If you have a similar project in your community that looks like it needs a kick in the pants, post it up and let's give it a "Good Guys With Guns" boost to reach its goals.
This project has been fully funded! Scoll on.
