Gofundme help for St. Kitts Athlete shot; needs surgery

Hi guys,

I am not sure what the rules are for stuff like this. I tried to private message gh for permission but it didnt let me. If this is not allowed then I will understand if this post is taken down.

One of our middle-distance runners was shot last month by an off-duty police officer. He is now unable to move his arm due to nerve damage and needs medical care, which can only be done overseas. Our government is pledging assistance to an extent but it wont be enough. So I started a gofundme campaign on his behalf. Hoping you guys can all chip in and help.

I'll let this stand, as a marker point to note that no, it's not acceptable, no matter how dire the circumstances. If we open up the door this kind of thing who knows where it would end.

Thanks for understanding our apparent cold-heartedness.
