Blogland of Earl Capps: Nettie Britts update: Benefit in Greenville

Nettie Britts update: Benefit in Greenville - Sat. Feb 6

Since last summer, we've been updating Blogland readers on the progress of one of our readers - Midlands GOP activist and USC student Nettie Britts, who was attacked and darn near died by some thug who remains at large.

While we won't be happy until the punk pays dearly (or better yet gets shot resisting arrest), we're pleased to announce that Republicans from across the state are coming together for an evening to raise money to help pay her medical bills.

This benefit was organized by the Dean Allen for Adjutant General campaign, and will be held on the occasion of Ronald Reagan's birthday:

We are hosting a Reception & Dance February 6, 2010

They're also soliciting donations for the silent auction. Even if you can't make it, please consider donating prizes and/or cash for this event. As my birthday will be the day before, I'm asking the Blogland's readers to make my birthday a good one by helping rally behind one of our fellow Republicans.

Thank you, Earl, for giving this event a plug. It's also heartwarming that others are willing to help. God bless you all! And I agree with your introduction, charity has to start at home. We conservatives have been proven to be the most charitable people in the most charitable country. There are statistics to support this!
