When this was posted on PPRuNe on the 22nd, it was obviously neither rumour nor news. The link didn't work, and the webpage didn't accept donations from outside the USA.
Iy's Christmas and PPRuNe headquarters decided that helping Capt Haynes and his family could be an honourable exeption to all rules. So the post stayed. The web masters of http://www.transplants.org./ reacted quickly to a mail pointing out that many of us wished to donate from abroad.

Captain Haynes is an inspiration not only to pilots; his accounts of the very real difference the FAs made in saving lives inspired generations of FAs around the world.

A good cause for the international aviation community that is PPRuNe. Let us hope that we have made a difference.
