This sounds like a great idea.

Accept it and let him know how much it meant to you.


Be sure to send a real Thank you card.

Accepting money from a family member in a position like this is OK.

The best advice I can give would be to let hime know what use you put the money to.

Example: I was given a little dough to do my IAM course - which has helped me a lot - they are very appriciative of knowing there little bit can go a long way
