1st Mfest Toys for Tots Event?

[t3stman]

Hi Guys, i was thinking/wondering if you guys will be around on 12/14 (sunday) to do a toys for tots at USC Children Hospital. I have a good friend that is a pediatrics/internal medicine Dr. that work at the hospital. If we get enough interest then i'll contact her and discuss this with her. I'm sure most of us have younger brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews, and kids of your own so imagine the faces on this kids when we roll up in our ///M cars to the hospital with the toys :D. After that we can get brunch and do a run :D

So please give me your inputs and i'll put this together.

i usually do this event
http://motor4toys.com/

plenty of exotic cars and all benefiting the kids
they even raffle off and sell some good stuff which all the money goes towards the kids

[t3stman]

That's cool. We can join them because the toys will go to the kids that are less fortune. If we can get 100+ M or BMW cars w/ Mfest stickers that would be a statement :D

really good idea ...

[MC28REPSOL]

I'm always down with helping kids

[t3stman]

Chris, i was going to PM/call you about events like this before posting it but since you are on here as much as i am i decided to post to get more feedbacks from the other members :). The calendar and sweatshirts are the other things that i want to discuss with you. The meet will be a good place to debut and i'm sure it will be a good place to sell especially the sweatshirts because we will be wearing it so imagine the exposure :laughhard: but we need to have a sample of what it will look like. You know how we are... we want to see sample(s) before we buy anything :D.

If we can do events like this it will also make a statement that not only we want to have fun but we care for those that are unfortunate.

[MPower82]

this idea really makes a difference and promotes MFesters in a positive way with the general public, car enthusiasts, and law enforcement. Cris I will make a few calls and see what I can come up with. Either way, I am in,

[415Banker]

We will put a big :D on the kids face and at the same time we will let everybody know that MFEST is not just about cars but we do care for the kids that are unforunate. Get your mfest stickers on your car :laughhard:

[g24]

Im all in. Thanks Thomas great idea. I have a lot of new Beanie Babies I would love to give them to the kids.

[t3stman]

I'm just glad that people are interested in doing this :D. Imagine we can get 100+ M cars rolling to the event w/ the Mfest stickers (i'll keep mine until the end of the event haha). The way the market is going i'm sure a lot of stores are having huge sale so it's good time to pick up those toys for cheap :). Chris, maybe we can all meet at Wheels Power and roll out :laughhard:
