Thankyou Crown Honda of Southpoint in Durham.

About a month ago I visited with Scott W. and accepted a generous contribution from him and his group at Crown Honda of Southpoint in support of all the work BurnSurvivor.org does.

Charitable donations like this help us maintain our monthly goal of feeding the families at the Chapel Hill Ronald McDonald House. We cook out every time and trust me when I say we know how to fire up a grill and get food done right. It's something our Triangle Burn Support Group has been doing for over a decade because at times families housed there have had children treated at the UNC Hospital's North Carolina Jaycee Burn Center (my burn center Alma Mater).

These generous donations help us continue to be involved in other areas as well. Included among the whenever-wherever-however's are lectures to care givers, programs that prevent burns & assist with motivating burn survivors, work with family & friends as well as first responders, burn camps, and gathering at the annual World Burn Congress where you can measure your thoughts alongside hundreds of other views and opinions shared by burn survivors and those connected to the issue in one way or another. Support from businesses & individuals helps us maintain & grow our footprint in the "non medical side of the burn business".

This isn't the first time. Crown Honda of Southpoint has given annually for years...and they aren't just about the dollar dollar bill y'all. In addition to giving money, they've sent volunteers to flip burgers & dogs for the families on many of those CH RMH cookouts as well.

​Like I said, a thankyou long over due.
My girls tagged along and got to sit in a Danica Patrick race car they have on site. I have to admit that it was pretty cool to hear my girls talking cars and racing.
