Lightbulb Johhny Lightning fundraiser PT - help me out here PTE'ers

I stumbled across these Johnny Lightning PT Cruisers.

A local company that employs the phyically and mentally challenged is trying to get a newer handicapped accessible van.

Their mission is to give the disabled a chance to be an active part of the community and workforce.
If you guys were in Boy Scouts, Logan center makes ALL the Pinewood Derby car kits for the Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts. They ship around 10,000 every year.

I met with their General Manager, Joe Varano, and told him I would spread the word across the country via the PT forums.

I ask for your involvement.

Let's see how many places they can mark on the map!

The contact is:
Kim@logancenter.org

Been there, done that. Got mine about 3 or 4 weeks ago.
HERE's the original thread posted a while ago.
It's a great cause and worth every penny.

Thanks Jerry,

I never saw that post.

Logan Center is just down the street from me.
Actually, I worked across the street from them for over 7 years.

Thanks for the tip. As a nurse, I used to work at a couple of centers for the developmentally disabled. The funds they need are few and far between. I need another toy PT!

I spoke to Kim a couple of months ago and was able to get this in the my last CQ article as well (haven't heard from MediaSource when to expect mine... been swamped). But hopefully, the article and your post will help them reach their goal !

I met with Joe Varano, the general manager, today.

He said they had over 150 extra PTs shipped since this went online last week!

That's great guys!

My local club just got 9 of them.

Keep 'em coming.
