Less than 2 weeks to donate for our upcoming chrity event!

The time is nearing for our walk to help those with neuromuscular disease. March 5th is coming up fast. For those of you new to my blog, this is a copy of a previous post from February 7th describing the event. Any contribution is greatly appreciated no matter what the size. Every little bit helps!!!

Donate To The Muscular Dystrophy Association
Help support the millions of families out there with myopathies, A.K.A muscle disease. Donate To The MDA. LeeAnn and I, along with our other team members, are participating in an event called MDA Stride & Ride on March 5th at Great Lakes Crossing in Auburn Hills, Michigan. (It is called stride and ride because while we will be walking, people with neuromuscular disease will be riding in wheelchairs or other form of transportation). We are walking, to raise money to help the lives of anyone affected by a neuromuscular condition such as our beautiful Liliana. We are walking with a group name of Liliana's Angels and will each be wearing shirts in her honor. Here is the info directly from Great Lakes Crossing's web site:

03/05/06 MDA Stride & Ride
Join MDA's 3rd Annual "Great Walk" to fight neuromuscular diseases on Sunday, March 5, 2006 at Great Lakes Crossing. Start forming your team today and "Stride & Ride"!
Have fun with your best fun-loving friends and coworkers. Recruit a team of 10 or more and spend the morning of March 5th with us here at Great Lakes Crossing. Raise funds to support MDA-funded research in Michigan.
Your team goal is to have each team member raise at least $65 - the amount that MDA spends on research every minute of every day.
For more information calll MDA at (586) 274-9000 or (734) 416-076 or (248) 474-0235

And this is some information from the MDA's website:

This event raises money to help defeat some 43 neuromuscular diseases that affect people of all ages. The money we raise will help the Muscular Dystrophy Association continue providing services such as MDA summer camps for youngsters, repair and purchase of wheelchairs, braces, communication devices and other equipment, and scientific research seeking treatments and cures.

Keep in mind, you do not have to walk or even show, our team is walking for you. All you have to do is feel good for knowing you have helped countless people with your donation.

If there is any more information that I can find I will definitely post it here.

Your donation is Tax Deductible!!!
