Fundraiser for a Broken Clutch

Hi all, It is James H. Thornton III. I never want to ask for help or money, but I need your help to raise funds for this endeavor. The other day, my clutch gave out on me for my KIA RIO. It cost $2,864.00 dollars ($3,300.00 estimate) to fix & I am hurting for cash like we all are. I would greatly appreciated  you may know me at Trombone Thornton - the Dancing Man with a Trombone; I played with Brass Band Mission, & I am with PDX Transit Authority. I have 1,406 Facebook Friends, and if all my friends donated $2.50 (1,406 X 2.50= $3,515.00), then I would have enough to save my b*tt. I appreciate your help with this endeavor.
