It seems that this "Charity" - the Foundation for Unprivilieged Children" has been around for a while....
Reading deeper into the World Record Helicopter Team web site,
on their own
Records Page you can read all about their R22 venture which was the US Coast to Coast one that set off on January 23 2004.
The web page starts with :
Me and my co-pilot John Thomas had determined that we should help the Christian Foundation for unprivileged children in America
The rest of the page is quite boring,
and the ONLY other reference to the "Charity" is where they had to wait at an airfield in Texas for weather to clear - It seems that after scrounging a free meal for their "Charitable" efforts, the Restaurant owners set up an interview wth the local radio station :
The owners of Pecos Air Center, Dennis & Isabelle Blanchard gave us tasty steak burritos and newly brewed fresh coffee. They called KPTX radio when they found out about our fundraiser for kids . Cody West & Bill Randall Cole at the radio station wanted us to come for a live-interview.
... and they even LENT ( not borrowed
) them their car to get to the radio station
NO mention of how much this venture raised for the "Charity".
NO mention of what was done with any cash that was raised.
So come on Johan, or Mikael - We know you read this thread -
HOW MUCH cash was raised from this venture for those "poor naked frozen children" ?
What
specifically has been done with that cash ?
HOW MUCH was donated by your Sponsors : Sunstone International INC & Concrete Paving Contractors INC ??
You have stated
The Foundation has nothing!
So what happened to the money that was raised ?
