Guns For Food (No this isn’t a UN program)
Fortunately this isn’t a UN program or anything close, Kookers Kare is committed and actually does feed people. We are not complimenting ourselves here, but by our own free will donate firearms to select charity events for fund raising. Of course we do get some advertising and tax deductions, but primarily we do it because we do care to help others and have been blessed, by God, with the ability to do so.
Kookers Kare, Inc. is an all volunteer group committed to aiding those in need who have teamed up with a cadre of pork pullin, rib rubbin, and chicken chokin smokers. They provide freshly cooked and non-perishable food to food pantries such as Harvesters Food Network and are an integral part of the Kansas City Barbeque Society. (Of course that was obvious by the photo’s). I was invited to this event by my cousin & cousin in-law from Plowboys BBQ (http://plowboysbbq.com/). By the way if you need some sauce, rub, or pork call these guys.
We here at D9 only did the light lifting while all the volunteers and smokers did the real work and provided a couple of thousand pounds of smoked beef and pork. I spoke to several of the teams and checked out their smokers and these men and women are definitely a committed group of peoples. (Don’t let the adult beverage containers fool you, these people work hard like this guy below.)
Well it turned out to be a neat little event where they offered several raffle prizes and auctioned off a Mossberg Youth 20/22 Camouflaged Pump Shotgun provided by D9Firearms.com. Considering all the participants were already donating time and food, they still had the benevolence to purchase raffle tickets and bid on the shotgun.
Eric couldn’t resist and ended up winning the shotgun. And to all you men out there listen up, it was for his wife. Not only did this guy provide his time and smoked pork-butt, he also bid this shotgun for his wife. Now this is truly a loving and devoted husband. We applaud Eric for both his donations and for winning the auction it all went to a good cause.
If you know of a charitable event in Kansas City that has silent auctions and would accept a firearm from D9 send us an email. Although we can’t contribute to them all we would still be interested in hearing from you.
Thanks to Kookers Kare, PlowBoys, and Eric.
Sincerely,
