PBnation taking Donations for Peyton's Heart Surgery

Members and Guests,

Thanks for taking the time to read this and help

Some of you may have heard about Darryl Trent's 7-year old daughter Peyton and her needed heart surgery.

Darryl works for DLX and is a well-regarded member of the paintball community and industry. Because of recent difficulties in the paintball industry and the $300,000 cost of the surgery Darryl and his family are facing a financial burden that might exceed $30,000 for Peyton’s heart surgery, which was performed this week.


I think we can help

I just got off the phone with Darryl's wife, Tracey, and she told me that Peyton is doing well and starting the recovery process. I have posted a few pictures of Peyton.








We know times are tough right now for lots of people who play and work in paintball. Personally I can’t imagine the stress that Tracey and Darryl are experiencing now and I hope your thoughts and prayers, like mine are for a swift and complete recovery for Peyton.


Paintballers for Peyton

We have setup a donation page so that you can help Peyton and her family with the financial costs of the heart surgery. Anyone that donates over $15 will receive a new Peyton Supporter badge as a small token of thanks for helping out.


PbNation will start off with a donation of $500.00. To donate, simply click the Donate button below, which will redirect you to Paypal.


Note: Remember to click the link labeled "Please enter your PbNation username" and enter your username on the donation page if you want to receive your badge. See the screenshot below for more information.



Help get the word out

A quick and easy way to spread the word on this is to use the button at the top of this thread. Just roll over the button and pick where you want to share. It works with 160+ websites such as Twitter, Facebook, Myspace and tons more.


Thanks again for your continued support!

All the best,
The Team at PbNation

100% of the proceeds (less any PayPal fees) from your donations will go directly to the Trent family.
