Hi everyone stopping in to check on Hope’s Projects.
70% of Spinning on a Barstool’s profits have been earmarked for
Chilliwack Youth for connection and to prevent homelessness
German Youth to connection and to prevent homelessness
Ukraine Grannies
These were everything we were hoping to help with The Foundation of Hope.
For the sake of transparency. Spinning on a Barstool cost $15,000 it’s first year in publishing and advertising. My personal money was used to fund this.
To date Spinning on a Barstool Profits have been reinvested in advertising and audio book production.
It has repaid me $1850.
While Spinning on a Barstool has not yet turned a profit, it did donate $600 Canadian Dollars to help fund a water tank for a coffee cart in Germany.
Spinning on a Barstool continues to sell books every month, and while it may take a while to earn enough to pay me back its start up costs… it is being read by people, and that’s why the book was written, to warn people about Daryl Heiligsetzer. It’s doing its primary job.
I want to thank you for reading it, I know you are here because you did!
Please share the story. Con artists are around every corner and, surprisingly, they act like Daryl. The best we can do is share information so others are equipped. Maybe in sharing someone else can avoid being conned by anyone, including Daryl.
Your reviews are also very important to push the story forward. Do consider leaving your own review of the story on Amazon and Goodreads.
This author thanks you!



Daryl pretended to be concerned for the community of Chilliwack in order to steal our money. We no longer had the Foundation of Hope to bring the help, but help was still needed. Tip Tuesdays in November was inspired to help the students of the Secondary School. I donate all of my tips on these days and Tina donates her day off to come and help me!
Customers at Corky's have used these days to tip super huge to help our kids!!!



If you're ever in the area in November on a Tuesday, please be sure to stop in!

Meet Nikki, she is enjoying a drink with our Tina.
Nikki is also in Spinning on a Barstool
Nikki now works for Cam Tran in Chilliwack and is the fire that has ignited their involvement with our Tip Tuesdays in November at Corky's—donating thousands of dollars for gym strip, toiletries and shoes (among other things) at the Secondary School we are working with.
