Good job with the letter Shaun but I think ARTC1K's version would be a better choice.
|
I thought using the term 3rd world was a no no these days. I thought it was developing nation.

THANK YOU ALL!... GOD BLESS and have a great week gentlemen..:smile: Shaun. |
Lul.
Now that you have a kind of LUL in the action while waiting for legal advice, when do we move on to the BL version of the RCM wheelchair. That is when things should get really interesting. Just to think of the ideas that we can come up with for that boggles the mind. Then we can all see videos of you flying down the road out of control screeming out lincpimp's name for giving you spiked info on the ESC hookup. :rofl::lol::rofl: I for one cannot wait to see how that works out. The first two chairs seemed to go fairly easy for you considering what you started with. They both turned out pretty nice, but that challenge is over and way too easy for you to quit now. Just checking on your plans for the next phase Shaun. If we know you, you will not let the dust settle on things for long. :whip::yes:

I would contact the variety club. Maybe you could get a spot on the next telethon to promote the idea to a broad audience... a donated chair on the show would certainly be great advertising.
Hit the local library and get a book on writing winning proposals. It is more about writing for big grants and such for universities, but the principles apply to many fields. It has sure helped my business sense out. I love the chair and will see what I can find for contact info/organizations on this side of the border to help out. |
Deletes are in RED
Changes are in BLUE Spelling is ORANGE To Whom It May Concern: I’m writing you this letter to inform you that a gentleman from Southern California and several other gentlemen from a RC website (rc-monster.com) banded together as a team with one common goal in mind. To build the coolest, cheapest, and (I'm sorry, but it sounds cheesy. Professionalism) most reliable 3rd world wheel in existence and I believe we have successfully accomplished our mission. Hello my name is Shaun / TDC57 and here is our story! RC-Monster a website that specializes in converting dirty, smelly and ozone depleting Nitro fuel vehicles to clean, re-renewable electrical power. RC-Monster.com has a way of attracting the BEST and BRIGHTEST individuals within in the industry/hobby and throughout the world. (Again, I know you love us, but it sounds cheesy. Professionalism) After spending nearly a year there building extremely high-end and high dollar one of kind projects and gaining the respect and admiration of many others, I decided it was time to utilize the team's talents for a humanitarian project. If we can build the best of the best radio controlled vehicles, we surely wecan band together with our talents and better the world (one person at a time) by and give them the gift of mobility. What better gift is there than the opportunity to give someone self esteem, and to give them the opportunity to better themselves through mobility. Disabled or physically challenged people are more likely than others to live in grinding poverty. Unless disabled people are moved into the mainstream, it will be impossible to positively reduce poverty by 2015 or to give every girl and boy the chance to achieve a primary education. James D. Wolfsensohn, former President of the World Bank "According to the UN Economic and Social Council, there are 300 million people with disabilities in the developing world. Of these, 20 million need wheelchairs to become mobile again. Without chairs, many have no choice but to stay confined to their houses or drag themselves along to get anywhere, exposing themselves to potential injury and/or disease. Many children are unable to attend school. Chances for education, employment, and community involvement disappear. Under such conditions, they often end up either begging or relying on family members to support them. " Well all this about to change with Rc-Monster's latest Project “X” build the TDC 001 special. This chair that we the RC-Monster team proudly present to the world is constructed out of 1” schedule 40 (do we need to know this?) PVC, we chose the PVC for the construction do the fact that it’s readily available, it's cheap, it’s lite-weight, it’s extremely strong, and should last for many years to come when constructed correctly. Break for text The main cost of material for the actual build itself totals $78.83 cents @ Home Depot, the rear wheels are mountain bike tires with an outer push rim that sells for $50.00 a pair. The front wheels (6”x2”) casters were purchased at Orchard Supply Hardware for $15 each and the seat chosen for the project cost $19.00 bringing the total cost of the chair (retail) to $177.83 U.S. dollars. This does not include the three hours in labor for each chair in order to construct and paint each one. Our chair can be shipped in a normal bike size cardboard box, and actually comes with the opportunity for the end user to customize the foot & head rests to best suite their individual needs. I’ve included pictures from the beginning to the end showing our complete process for your review and comments. I hope you will find this chair worthy enough to contact me for a meeting so that I/ (you will be meeting with more than one person, hence WE)we may have the opportunity to introduce this chair to the world. It has been said that one individual has the power to change/better (delete) the world for others, well we are those individuals and we are sincere in our belief that this wheelchair (so they don't forget the topic)may change the world one person at a time. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Shaun P Bogel / RC-Monster team.. (Hope this helps out some. I know that your heart is full of love for all the help that you have been given. But remember, we helped, this is YOUR project! You did this! (I am not saying leave us out of it, but use singular pronouns) Other than that, I submit these changes for your consideration) |
