When the Merchant Navy Locomotive Preservation Society needed to replace their very old BVC Vacuum they came to BVC Quirepace. Chris (Senior Engineer) said we have been using a BVC vacuum for decades to clean out the soot box on our 1948 Steam locomotive Clan Line No 35028 so it made sense to came back to them to supply us a new unit. Patrick came to look at the loco and recommended a 4kw vacuum for the task, because we are a charity Quirepace helped us to purchase the vacuum and even delivered it on a Saturday when our team of volunteers are on site. Thanks very much! Patrick said; My father was a railway man for 30 years so when the enquiry came in, I was straight down to the depo in London to meet the team. When selling to a charity we know funds can be tight so we will always try to help with the purchase. I was more than happy to deliver the vacuum myself on a Saturday (and spend more time around this magnificent looking engine). We offer free friendly visits and demonstrations country wide, just reach out and we can arrange something. www.quirepace.co.uk #BVC #vacuumclean #locomotive #locomotivepreservation #steamlocomotive #steamtrainsofbritain #IndustrialVacuumCleaner #industrialcleaning

Each time I start a fundraiser, I’m thinking about one friend’s life it could save. In a week I’m turning 33. I invite you to donate the cost of a gift or the night out we had to have together to fund a pickup truck for 12th Azov Brigade. And maybe safe the life to one of my friends serving on the frontline. 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀. 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀. In the grand scale of war, we often talk about soldiers like resources: numbers, equipment, stats. But for me, it’s impossible to think that way. Among those resources are friends — real people I follow on LinkedIn who have everything to lose. 𝗔 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿. On the frontline, a dependable vehicle ensures safety and efficiency. With the constant threat of Russian FPV drones, a sturdy car during rescue or supply missions can mean the difference between success and disaster. 𝗙𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗿 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹: £7,700 to procure a new pickup truck (or two if we’ll manage to raise enough funds) for 12th Special Operations Brigade "Azov" holding Pokrovsk part of the frontline to conduct rescue operations and support day-to-day logistics. 👉 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻: Your donation, comment of support or re-share can make a real difference. Check the first comment with the options on how to join. Thank you for your support. 💙💛 𝘗𝘩𝘰𝘵𝘰: 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘸𝘰 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘸𝘦’𝘷𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘪𝘯 Dec 2022. #Ukraine #Fundraiser

Give 🕊️ Wings of Hope 🕊️ for Kharkiv with us ‼️ Everywhere is Dangerous ‼️ 𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬 on Kharkiv’s homes, shops, and the biggest Ukrainian printing house Kharkiv, with its 1 million inhabitants, is located just 32 km from 𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐚's border. Residents have up to 5 minutes to take cover when missiles are incoming from russia. However, the Ukrainian air alarms often don’t activate in time. In May alone, there were 76 incidents of strikes and shelling, nearly three times more than in April. The air raid siren went off 193 times, sounding for a cumulative total of 474 hours and 55 minutes. That is why we are collecting funds to cover 💙 Kharkiv 💛 ✅ Our target is €8,000 for around 23 drones that will protect the sky above Kharkiv. Help us give wings to Kharkiv, Help us save lives in Ukraine. Link is below 👇 #StandWithUkraine #Charity #Fundraising

I am so proud of the work my classmates (Jessica Whitney, MBA, Millie Hale, → Cristina P., Bradford Waldie, Austin McKinney, Stephan Azab, and Jordan Craft) and I have done creating the 2010 Endowment for Cadet Morale with the Air Force Academy Foundation and Association of Graduates - U.S. Air Force Academy. $0.93 per dollar donated to the Class of 2010 Endowment for Cadet Morale goes directly to the cadets. So, for every $20.10 monthly donation, $18.69 is provided to the fund monthly. Since its inception in 2020, seven cadet squadrons have received $5,000 to spend however they see fit. We have seen improvements to SARs, Top Golf parties, video game system purchases, squadron bars created, and restaurant outings (Raising Canes and Chiptole). We make a tangible impact on cadets at USAFA every semester. As a class, we don't micromanage how cadets spend the money. The winning squadron AOC works with their cadet leadership to create an initial proposal for how the funds are spent, including an itemized breakdown. USAFA and the Association and Foundation review this proposal, and then once approved, the Association and Foundation work directly with the cadet leadership to purchase the items. You do not need to be in the Class of 2010 to contribute—everyone is welcome to join our team dedicated to helping cadets currently at USAFA raise their morale in a way that is authentic to their current desires. See the link below for more information about the fund, who has already donated, impact reports about how the cadets have spent the money, two videos of squadrons updating their SARs, and how you can donate. Please share the link with your network if you think what we do is worthwhile. We aim to have 250 people donate to the fund and at least 50 of those individuals making monthly recurring donations of $10 or more by 1 September. Ultimately, we are looking to grow the fund from its current $170K to $200K by the end of the year. https://lnkd.in/gN-Xpy9S #1day1usafa #usafa #2010 #morale #usafaaog

Why don't we fly our helicopter at night? 💭 A great question, and one which we get asked a lot... well, truthfully, our helicopters CAN fly at night, but can only land on a well-lit, recognised helipad, otherwise overhead wires and other hazards can be impossible to spot. And that's why we use our rapid response vehicles when the sun sets; in the evening, roads are quieter and easier to navigate, and our cars do an expert job of getting our team to incidents quickly, especially in urban areas. Last year, we attended 745 missions after the sun had set, and that's why we must be there for Anyone, Anytime, Anywhere: gna.as/appeal247 #Charity #AirAmbulance #Helicopter
