What`s PayPal? Is it Safe? Can anyone use it?> PayPal is designed from the ground up to be a safer way to send money online. PayPal doesn’t expose or sell your financial information to merchants. PayPal is the safer, easier way to pay and get paid online. The service allows anyone to pay in any way they prefer, including through credit cards, bank accounts, buyer credit or account balances, without sharing financial information. PayPal has quickly become a global leader in online payment solutions with more than 153 million accounts worldwide. Available in 190 markets and 18 currencies around the world, PayPal enables global ecommerce by making payments possible across different locations, currencies, and languages. PayPal has received more than 20 awards for excellence from the internet industry and the business community -most recently the 2006 Webby Award for Best Financial Services Site and the 2006 Webby People's Voice Award for Best Financial Services Site. Located in San Jose, California, PayPal was founded in 1998 and was acquired by eBay in 2002. The good news is that you don't have to be a "signed up" member of PayPal to use PayPal. No need to log in if you simply want to send someone a gift, or make a quick purchase or donation online with your credit card. It's safe. It's secure. It's why I choose to use PayPal to fund raise for my Segway cause. Give it a try, you just might find the experience so enjoyable that you will make another donation just to confirm how easy it was to send money.

How can you help? |

You can help in one of several ways. Of course, the main way you can help is to donate to my fund! If you would rather not for personal reasons, I respect that. If you are more of a "cerebral" type, then put your neurons and glueons together and whip up a letter to the Premier of Alberta, the Minister of Transportation for Alberta, or even your local MLA and advise them of the outright abuse of my Rights and Freedoms as garanteed under Canada's charter. Politicians refusing to take action on an issue does not mean that the issue is illegal or not worthwhile. Why is it always our American friends who show Canadians how it is done. Why can we Canadians no proactively make some decisions that will have world renown and show that we too, can be forward thinking, energy conscious and recognize that disabled persons have the same right to freedom of movement as anyone else in this country? To contact the Premier of Alberta, Ed Stelmach, write an email to him at premier@gov.ab.ca If you like Snail Mail, then please send him a letter to: The Honourable Ed Stelmach To contact Luke Ouellette, the Minister of Transportation for Alberta, email him at: Transportation.Minister@gov.ab.ca For Snail Mail, send to: The Honerable Luke Ouellette If you have any other ideas how to help, then please email me by clicking on the "Contact Me" button in the yellow bar at top, and send me your ideas. I am always looking for fresh new ways to reach out to people for assistance without sounding needy. I`m just a person with a goal for independence and freedom of movement. Nno rush - I'm in this for the long haul, and am trying to save some of my own money in the same "kitty" too. It just would be "nice" to be able to get out and about sooner than later, is all. With your help, I can once again enjoy freedom of movement and money-saving transportation. Thank-you all for taking the time to look at what I am doing here. In the meantime, got a few extra bucks that you were going to blow on a movie rental tonight? How about dropping it into my kitty. I plan on developing a `Donor`s page of honour`for all the people who supported me, and where they are from. (First name, last name initial, city, region and country only for privacy reasons) Why not get your name in near the top, eh? |

Do you like reading other people's letters?
In Canada,
we have no such support!
Do you want to learn more about why I want a Segway? Go to my final page if you have not yet donated to my fund, to find out just WHY I am doing this.
Some people think "Big Deal!". For me, it IS a big deal, and I have borrowed some well thought out information from DRAFT in the US, something Veterans Affairs Canada should look seriously into for OUR veterans.
So, click on the Segway logo to go to my "Big Deal" page!
