Toast Make a dream come true.

[WCE_phil]

What is posted below is a facebook post. I thought i would share it here to see if there is anything we can do as some of us who are 'obsessed' and not just 'fans' have some contacts, we have people who post here who are involved with the club and some of us work or contract to and have contacts in very large companies who have direct contact with West Coast.

As someone who is a veteran himself (thankfully a long time more recently than WW2) this is something i would very luck like to see what we can do. It doesn't matter if it is a child, an old man, the disabled or anyone who can't do things for themselves it is up to those of us who can to help make dreams come true.

As a part of BGC residential a couple of weeks back for our yearly launch we had Adam Simpson come have a chat and i know we have internal contacts within the club. I've emailed internally to see if there is anything we can do. However if i can't organise it and anyone else on this board or any other board can please let me or the club know. I am happy to pay the price of any wheelchair access ticket for this gentleman as well as a ticket for a chaperone for him and transport to and from the game.

Even if this is not just purely from a generosity standpoint for a business or large company out there this is a huge opportunity not only to make a dream come true but to also get a lot of public support and positive marketting happening.

Maybe just flick it to their Facebook or twitter accounts.

I am sure that they would be more than accommodating

That's fantastic!

So people know i'm not related and have no relationship with the people. However if you have the ability and the opportunity to help people, you should. Particularly when it's a die hard eagles fan.

It's all well and good to say you're going to help and post lots of nice things on facebook and inspirational quotes but it doesn't mean shit if you can't be ****ed actually doing anything or you don't get the results.

Great story, well done to all that made this happen

This is my Dad. My daughter and I went to membership services this morning and they were not at all helpful which disappoints me no end. Thanks to the efforts of my wonderful daughter and the wider FB community my Dad will get his wish. Thank you so much to Allied Forklifts for your generous donation of two seats in your corporate box. I don’t think Dad had ever been in a box at the Eagles

Yeah before reading this, i was thinking that a company could help out (especially one that spends heaps on a box).

 

[RookiePick]

Well done to Allied Forklifts and the people who had a hand in making this happen.

The story has been reported in the online press - http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/h...t-eagles-game-went-viral-20180207-h0vkxw.html

Kudos to Allied Forklifts.

 

[avishka5]

From the news today.

 

[matt_bas]

West Coast should hang there heads in shame. Should have done more.

 

[royalsfan]

The Gold Coast game on April 14th

Great story to read, hopefully the boys turn it on for them.

Indeed. It's not enough just to talk the talk, but one has to have some follow through by walking the walk. Good job, Phil.
