INMATES...It's Time To Rally


I just found out some bad news about three INMATES.  Melissa Mendoza, Ashley Mendoza and Bryan Kerley's house was recently destroyed in a fire.  They lost everything they owned.  Everything.

I know that in today's world of social media overload, it's practically a weekly occurrence to read or hear about someone else's misfortunes.  Because of that, it's easy to gloss over stories like this, unless you personally know the victim(s).  But, have you ever thought about how quickly life can change?  I'll admit it's not something I like to spend a lot of time thinking about.  However, once you understand that the future is not guaranteed, your appreciation for life will escalate tremendously.

So, take a moment to think about how screwed you'd be if you lost every single possession you owned.  What would you do?  Where would you live?  How would you replace your stuff?  And what about the irreplaceable stuff like pictures and keepsakes?  That would be absolutely terrible.

With that in mind, here's how you can help.  On Wednesday, August 28, 2013, The Hub Sports Bar and Grill (4145 Belt Line Road, Addison, Texas 75001) is hosting a benefit to help raise money for these INMATES.  All tips and donations will be given to Melissa Mendoza, Ashley Mendoza and Bryan Kerley; to help rebuild their lives.   The benefit will start at 7:00 p.m. and there will be $3.00 wells and domestic beer for all INMATES.  Live acoustic music, from 9:00 p.m. to midnight, by Mark David Manders.  Oh yeah, and the Mendoza sisters and Bryan will be bartending the benefit that night.  For more information, click the link below...

Come out next week, have some drinks, listen to some good music and contribute what you can to the cause.  Even if you only have $5.00 to donate, every dollar helps.   Remember, one day it just might be you that needs help.  Toast!
