+hollora Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 For the past two years non-profit Penobscot County (ME) Conservation Association has been very fortunate to borrow PN units from DeLorme for an introductory Geocaching class at a FREE Fun Day for families and kids. This year they were very clear, it would be the last year they could provide us with loaner units. In anticipation of this, we are asking folks who may not be able to sell their units or who would rather just support the effort of education to consider donating their units to us. We don't care the brand of the GPSr but rather that is in working order and has all its pieces. Like the battery cover and a bootable screen. We will provide you with a shipping address and you will receive a receipt from us for your donation to our non-profit Association (you assign the value - just like a donation to Salvation Army, GoodWill, etc.). Any units which we can not use for our Fun Day will be passed on to other non-profit Conservation Camps within our state. You will still get the acknowledgement of donation from us - regardless. Why aren't be buying units? We are not buying new units as our Association's primary mission is to provide scholarship funds for both college level Conservation curriculum students and Conservation Camperships for younger children. In order to sustain our level of conservation scholarships, we must run all other programs on a $0 budget basis. The Family Fun Day is a wonderful program but no money may be expended for operational expenses. We rely heavily on donations and loan programs. If you are interested in helping - please email me (hollora) for more details and additional contact information. Thank you for your consideration. Quote Link to comment
