March 2008 Donations Update

Well March is almost one for the books. A second successful month for MoT’s efforts to help Make-A-Wish Foundation. Please join me in thanking a few repeat supporters from years past who are again already displaying their generosity in 2008.

- Pete Basiellere has again offered three annual memberships to the Mount Washington Observatory, in support of their weather research efforts on top of the “rock pile”. Play On Pete!

-Doug and Donna at American MINI Mates have already sent us several MINI-themed t-shirts and sweatshirts — all the way from Colorado!

-Asthetic Creations will be us with several gift certificates. Their MINI roof graphics are well known for creativity and high quality.

-Detailers Paradise has offered one of their Prima Car Care Kits. Make sure you know which side is the shiny side on that MINI!

-Doug Whalen at Whalen Shift Machine will be sending us two of his custom shift knobs — get that quick, smooth, and snappy feeling when you shift, without the hassle of installing a short shift kit.

We’re still only part way to our goal for 2008. Any and all offers and suggestions for donations are appreciated.

MOT2008 donations

Hello everyone. This is Dave T. — I’m helping coordinate donations for MoT 2008. Many of you might know me as “LePew”.

While its still quite early, I already have some great news about donated prizes. MINIdoMore has again offered one of their trailer hitch kits (value $325) and a cargo carrier ($200) for 2008. Also Texas SpeedWerks has stepped up again and said they’ll be offering a special carbon fiber engine damper — and maybe secret new suspension components! Both these vendors are repeats from last year and we all owe them a big thanks for their help!
