SHARE, SHARE, SHARE! PLEASE HELP CAMILLE! With HeliExpo nearly upon us, we wanted to switch things up and start it all off with attempting a positive impact. We received a message asking us to assist spread the word of a disabled woman’s attempt to help cover the medical costs for surgery needed to save her small dogs life. She’s native to Oklahoma, and after years of living alone with her four-legged best friend, she’s struggling to fund the surgery costs necessary to sav...e her best buddy Camille’s life. So we want to encourage all of you rotor and pup enthusiasts to help us get Camille back on track to live a happy and healthy life with her human companion. Spare a dollar for this little pooch, or give a share to help spread the word. Every little bit adds up towards a greater impact! Whoever decides to step up and help Camille out will get a shout out! No amount is too small for a pup in need of a helping hand. But for the cost of a pitch link you could really change a little dogs life. https://www.gofundme.com/f/camille-the-frenchie
