Need a Hunt for a 10 year old with ALS Leukemia - 01/13/17 06:34 PM
Hello everyone,
My name is Denny Vasquez and I am a board member of the charity group, Texas Outdoor C.H.I. L.D.. For the last 16 years, we have been providing outdoor adventures to youngsters that have a terminal illnesses, are in remission from a terminal illness or have experienced a life altering medial event. I have a 10 year old young man from San Antonio that is in remission from ALS Leukemia that wants to go hunting. To the best of my knowledge this young man has never even shot a rifle before so it could be a challenging hunt. We have a group of ranches that we normally work with but since last year was a really busy year for us I don't want to abuse the privilege, so to speak, so I am looking for someone that might be willing to help us make this young man's dream come true. If you are willing to consider helping us out, either with a donation or a reduced cost hunt please call me at 281-384-2968 or email me at texan0718@yahoo.com. This does not have to be a huge trophy animal, just a representative of the species that can provide some meat for his family and a head that we can mount for him to put on his wall to remember the event by. You can see some of our past adventures on our face book page, https://www.facebook.com/Texas-Outdoor-CHILD-368221741732/…. The young lady at the top of the page is the reason that this young man wants to go hunting. She has lost her left leg to cancer and they know each other from the hospital where they were getting their treatments. He heard about her hunt the weekend of December 9th and now he wants to go see what it is all about. Thanks for considering our request. P.S. Every dime donated to us goes toward the youngsters as all of our staff is 100% volunteers.
