I am asking for a favor from my fellow Dopers.

We have lost our lease and have to move the Taekwondo school. Our landlord is taking the entire building back and will demolish it to build a new junior high school.

We’re going to be short a lot of money on the move. I have set up an IndieGoGo campaign here and if you happen to have a few spare bucks just lying around doing nothing, we will be grateful for your help.

And thanks much to Twickster and her fellow mods for allowing me to post this.

I’ve shared this on both my Facebook accounts, and will do what I personally can when I find the bankcard.

Thanks, my friend. I forgot to mention that even if folks can’t contribute, spreading the word via Facebook, etc. might hook us up with someone who can.

I appreciate it.
