As you may know, fc member @PhotoRider ran a series of contests and auctions late last year as a gift to the staff here. His incredible altruism and generosity will continue to be a priceless source of inspiration and optimism to me and many others I'm sure. On behalf of the staff, and everyone involved here at fc, thank you, PhotoRider!
It didn't take long for the spirit to spread, and what happened next is summarized perfectly by the following announcement. I can't take credit for writing it, but I was nominated to post it and am very happy to do so.
When the moderators were blessed to receive such a gift as result of PhotoRider's contest and generosity, we all talked it over, and felt that being here at FC was such a joyous job, that we wanted to "pay it forward", instead of keeping the gift.
This is where Vitolo comes in.
FC Member Vitolo lives in a state that only 3 years ago was made into a Medical Marijuana State. He is active in helping low income patients that are moderately to severely disabled to find vaporizers.
Doctors in his state, like Dr. Heather Moroso and Dr. Garcia refer patients that they screen and assure are low income, and moderately disabled at minimum, and they ask that Vito teach them about Vaporization, and other alternative methods of MMJ consumption.
Over the course of time, many have helped Vito in his plan to aid these patients.
The Moderators wanted to do something here also.
We have elected to let Vitolo get Medical grade devices, and grinders to a few of the most financially limited, and severely disabled, Card Holding patients the local Doctors have referred to his care.
Vitolo has made arrangements with the manufacturers and sellers, and is getting the best possible deal that can be had, because everyone involved wants to help out.
We surely hope you approve of how the Moderators at FC have decided we will use the money we have been given.
Thank you, Vito for doing the legwork and making it easy for us to help others. Thank you everyone for making this community what it is! I hope that we can continue to do great things.

Over the course of time, many have helped Vito in his plan to aid these patients.
- Manufacturers like AromaZap, 7th Floor, Vapor Brothers, and Delta9 and others have stepped up and helped Vito with this endeavor.
- Retailers also have joined in. Folks like PuffitUp, Vapor Warehouse, Vape World, PlanetVape and BlissSville have kicked in to help when they could.
- FC Members have also sent Vitolo older vapes that have fallen out of regular use, and Vito finds appropriate homes in the community for all of them. So many have helped with this, that it would be unfair to single them out , as we may leave someone out.

It is a very generous thing that you and the moderators of this site have chosen to do!!!!
My only regret is that I have not been vaping long enough to have anything on the back burner to donate.
