How/where do I donate to the Airfence fund?

Thanks!

Awesome!! Thanks Papa!!

 

I tried to donate about two weeks ago through that site. Got to the confirmation page thanking me for the contribution, but never got an email receipt of it. Just looked at my credit card statement, never even pulled.

 

Wow! Didn't realize how much had been donated!

I just donated, and saw this, so I copied/pasted: Road Race Contributions Totaling $1,228,966.06 as of December 31, 2014

Wonder what it's up to now?

 

Did you get a receipt?

 

Yeah, I just donated, and the confirmation (with no #) screen was blank. I figured I'd get an email, so after reading your post, I'll pay attention that that, and my CC statement.

Negative.

 

Turns out there's something wrong with the Roadracing World Action Fund (RWAF) website. Geeks are working on it now. You can get more info and/or questions answered, or you can make a donation, by calling the office at 951-245-6411 between 9-5 California time and talking to a human.

Sorry for this technical problem. We didn't know it was happening until we saw this thread, and apparently it's been screwed up for a while without us getting any notification!

And yeah, we've raised a lot of money, and deployed a lot of Airfence and Alpina-brand soft barriers. If you go someplace and see it deployed, the chances are very good that we had something to do with it. Beyond that, our starting the RWAF helped change the way rider safety was looked at in this country, and made safety measures like deploying soft barriers normal and even expected.

RWAF business costs have been subsidized by Roadracing World magazine so the donations can go toward getting, deploying, maintaining and fixing actual soft barriers. So not only have people and companies who made tax-deductible donations helped us save the lives of riders--and reduce injuries to other riders--everybody who buys and reads Roadracing World or advertises in Roadracing World has had a part in this. I thank you all, and so do future crashers who benefit from soft barriers being in place!

If you have a problem sorting anything out, ask for me or leave a message and I will make sure it gets handled.

 

Glad this thread came around. I'll give it round two in a bit then.

Thanks for everything John

 

Wow I've doing trackdays for like 4 years now and this is the first I've ever heard about this. So much awesomeness!!!

Also don't forget Amazon Smile as a way to donate also.
I wish there was a way to see how much they actually donate.

 

I just switched our Amazon account over to Smile / RRW AFF. I thought I saw it was .5 a % was donated.

 

Amazon Smile is great, I didn't even know about it until a few weeks ago. Looked last year and we spent 6k on Amazon.

 

It might not seem like much, but thats $50 of every $1000 spent. It will add up. I made a post about it on Facebook last week and it got almost 30 shares, so it reached tens of thousands of people.

Even if just 1/4 of those people swapped over to smile.amazon and setup RRWAF as their charity of choice, it could generate tens of thousands over time.

I have a friend that wouldn't be here today if it weren't for AirFence.

 

John, thank you so much. The Action Fund has saved more lives than we'll ever know.

 

Thanks John!

I'll call and donate later since I'm on the East coast.

 

I'm glad people brought up amazon smile too. Didn't really know how that worked... Search "roadracing" and it's right there.
