Jodie, I understand the resistance to the help. When I got laid-off a month before Christmas, a bunch of my college buddies all pitched in together to help me out. It turned out to be more than $600!! I would not have accepted it, but it was done without my knowing and my brother says 'Here, this is for you' and hands me an envelope. About 6 months later, another buddy got laid off, and I was the first in line to help him out.
What we, the board members, want to do here is not charity - it's helping a friend in need. If it makes you feel better, once you're on your feet again (and you will be) you can sell the car and donate the $$ back to the board.
Please consider this. It would make us all feel better to help you out and see you keep the Burb.
