PLEASE help a friend in need

Hello everyone,

A dear friend of ours, and of the performance community, Mike of Kenne Bell superchargers, recently learned that his wife, and mother of two young boys (ages 3 and 17 months), has inoperable stage 4 pancriatic cancer. This woman is only in her mid/late 30's, and is the love of Mikes life. She is adored by her children, and the backbone to their family. She has been given only months to live, but is fighting with everything she has to beat the odds.

In order to help her in this battle, we are trying to relieve as much stress off of their family as possible. The best way we know how to do this is to provide some financial help. We want Mike to be able to give her anything she needs, in order to help her in her journey. We all know that money is the reason people cant do alot of things they need to do. If Mike wants to take time off work to be with his wife, he needs to know he has money set aside to help with those bills. If his wife wants to curl her toes on the beach of Hawaii, and smell the ocean air, Mike needs to have the financial ability to sweep her off her feet, and take her there. But if God forbid her journey is cut short, Mike needs to have the ability to cover the costs associated with the proper service. We have set up an account for their family to help pay for anything they may need to get through this time, whether it be doctor's bills, travel expenses, time off work, or anything else they may need.

We are hoping and expecting that anyone, and everyone who knows Mike from Kenne Bell superchargers (and even those who dont) will make a donation for this cause. Mike is a proud person, who will NOT ask for help. These proceeds are being given to him, so that he may focus on getting his wife healthy. Anyone who has lost someone close to them knows, that money is always the reason why that person can not go above and beyond for the health and support of their loved one. They either dont have enough money to take off work, take them to that special place, purchase that special item that their loved one has always wanted, pay for medical bills and co-pays, or at the very worst, pay the skyrocketing costs of a proper service.

So all in all, We want Mike to focus on loving his wife, and seeing her through these difficult times. His friends need to carry him, and give all the support they can possibly afford, and then some.

We (TPE) have commited to a large portion of our profit from KB sales directly to this fund. We have also set up sales on ALL forums, donating 100% of our proceeds to his cause. Plus, anyone who makes a donation that is NOT attached to a sale, up to $100.00 will be given in a TPE store credit. So if someone was going to buy a 100 dollar part from us, they can just donate that same 100.00 to Mikes cause, and we will send that person the part at no charge. This is a win/win for the customer and Mikes family.

We are hoping to accumulate $15,000.00 over the next 30-60 days for Mike and his family. We have set up an account through paypal and have sent Mike a Paypal Visa debit card, that will allow him to access this money on a moments notice. He has all account information, and passwords, so this is atached to him 100%. With this, now, when he needs something, rather than trying to figure out how to come up with the money, he can simply go to the ATM or bank, and withdraw any amount he chooses. This way his only concern will be his wife, and children. We can NOT do it alone, so we need everyones help as much as possible.

You can either pay directly though the link below, or go straight to his paypal account, and donate directly to him. The account email is: KenneBellMike@Gmail.com . To learn how to send money via paypal, please go to www.paypal.com. When sending money directly to him, make sure you click on the "Gift" button. By doing this, they will not charge him any processing fee's, they will give him 100% of the money.

If you choose to donate more than $100.00 through our website (its set up 1.00 to 100.00), please contact us, and we will set up any amount you choose. 100% of all donations will come with a receipt showing the donation for tax purposes.

So please Guys and Gals, a true frind looks past his own problems, to help those in need. Right now, there is no one as important, as Mike and his family. So its our duty to help our friend with anything he needs.

http://www.totalperformanceengineeri...d37ffd8e61a7d0

100% of the money you give will go directly into this account for Mike and his family. So PLEASE look within yourself, and help a dear friend of ours, and an extremely important person to the performance communiuty.

Thank you for your support and donations.

Everyone say a prayer for our friend, and let the lord know loud and clear that we wont stand for her being lost to the disease.

We know that it is hard times for everyone. So ANYTHING, is something. I just got word that he's virtually out of any remaining vacation pay. So now, he can only take time off when absolutely necessary.

She is going to chemo (im not sure how to spell it) a few times a week, and is fighting with everything she's got. So unfortunately, he can only afford to be gone for half days. But this means she's forced to be left alone the other half of the time.

At the beginning of the week, she was rushed to the hospital to have her lungs drained of fluid, so he cant afford to be away for even a second. We need to figure out a way to get them about 1,000.00 per week so he can take a leave, and be with her 24/7.

I am open to any/all suggestions, and am willing to to give every last dime of spare money. If anyone has suggestions, we are all ears.
Mike is a close friend of mine, and its killing me to see this. Having a wife and 4 kids of my own, I just know I could never do it without someone holding me up.


Please Please everyone. Even if its 1 dollar.. That is 1 dollar more than we started with. She needs to know that she's not in this alone. The more people that support her, the more fight she will have within her self.

Lastly, for those of you who believe in a higher power, please call on him, and say a prayer for this young mother. She's not ready.. Its not her time.. But if it is, ask for him to give Mike and his kids the strength, and understanding they need to get through it..

Were having some weird issue with it right now. Im having our webmaster fix the issue as quickly as possible.

Were monitoring the paypal account, so if you want to take advantage of the free product, just notate it in your paypal payment, and we will PM you. Please make sure you give us your forum name, and the forum you were from. Mike is Great friends with literally hundreds of members on multiple boards, so we have the thread on all of them.

Mike also asked that he get the name of EVERY person who donates, because he wants to personally thank each and every one of you.

I believe that the issues have been corrected. I just did a test order and it did not ask me for a shipping method and the order went through with no issues. If for some reason it continues to have problems, you can send paypal directly to Mike at KenneBellMike@Gmail.com or call us at the shop with your credit card information and we can take the donation over the phone. Sorry for any inconvience.

Thanks everyone...

We have received 380.00 as of about 10 minutes ago. Lets keep it coming. A few hundred more, and that should allow him to take a week off work to spend with his wife.
