In-Kind Donations
It was wartime; World War II.  But, despite it
all, day to day life had to go on. When a tornado blew down
the family barn, a young soldier's ship-out date was delayed
so he could help rebuild the very engine of the family's survival.
His were not only family labors; they were in-kind services,
the work of a trained soldier, courtesy of Uncle Sam. It was
a special kind of kindness, indeed.

Although the motivation is not nearly as dramatic, the kindness
side of in-kind donations is still evident, and the PBSBA
has been a sincerely appreciative recipient.

From free or reduced fees for production, consultation, website
development, photography, legal and accounting services to
carpentry work, art, birding advisors, media spots, copying,
lumber, flowers, meeting rooms, engineering services, lodging
and promotion, the in-kind kindness of community residents
and businesses has made such a difference.  Thank
you!
