  In Need.

  
  

  I saw this on Texie's site. A young man who really needs our help.  He left home due to an abusive father who is coming back from prison.  Please visit his site. He is just a young man who really needs a break.  He is going through something which we would not want to go through nor see our children go through.  I read his site and I cannot imagine what its like to be homeless as its something that I've never experienced, and reading his how terrrible it is for him, reminds me of how lucky I am to be with my family right now. 

  
  

  He is alone and all his possesions have been stolen.  No Money. no food, no shelter, and no one to help him through.  I saw Xanga as a community of people from all races who get to glimpse into each other's life, hopefully learning about the cultures and differences in everyones day to day life.  I would also like to think that Xanga can be a place where we can make a difference in even one person's life.  Please help this young guy with whatever you can, whether its just to encourage others to make a donation, so he can get through until he gets back on his feet (he is too young to be going through this) or making a donation yourself, anything will be gratefully received.  This is a genuine request for help for someone who can really use it.  This is your chance to make a difference in someone's life.  Like Texie said  "It goes in cycles dude... a chain I suppose.  Sometimes we give.. sometimes we receive".  I hope you will all find it in your hearts to give to someone who could sure use it. 

  
  

  
  

  
  

  I will also repeat what Texie said in that "please don feel pressured to donate, this button is here to make it easier for anyone who wishes to help".  If you need more information please visit Texie's site or NotAmusedhere's site.  At present another Xangan (Fleener) has kindly offered for this young man to stay with him until he can get back on his feet. So the donations will be sent to Fleener so that he may give them to NotAmused. Here's to Xanga and my realization that it can be used to help others.

  
  

   Please email me, Texie or Fleener, and we will gladly send you the code.

  
  

  Thanks everyone, lets all try to give what we can.
