FIVE DOLLAR FRIDAY for Make-A-Wish

June 25, 2010

My Friends,

Virtually all of us have known or been impacted by a child or teenager with a severe life-threatening medical condition.  Outside of hospital rooms, medical charts and IV bags they don't know too much else.  Being sick is very scary for children!  Ever so slightly they can here the whispering that goes on between their parents and their doctors outside the door of their hospital room.  They see the bravery that their parents and family show them, but know they are holding back their tears.  For many of these children time is of the essence.  Their family grasps at anything to create happy memories for their loved one.  And.....then the Make-A-Wish Foundation enters the picture with huge loving arms open wide ready to grant these incredible kids their most special wish EVER!  Many times these wishes that the MAWF grants are the best lasting memory that the child and family have together.  But just like many of us, the MAWF struggles to make ends meet too.  They are a non-profit charity and without funding they are useless.  That's why I'm making today "FIVE DOLLAR FRIDAY" to help generate more funding for them.  Won't you PLEASE consider making a small $5.00 donation to this wonderful foundation?  $5 is less than going to the movies.  $5 is less than a mani/pedi.  $5 is less than I paid for my lunch at work today!!  Please click on the "DONATE" button on my charity badge above to be taken directly to the Network for Good website where you can make your $5 contribution either via credit card or paypal.  It's completely safe and will go directly to my state MAW chapter.  Thank you for helping to pave the way to create happy and joyful memories for kids!!

Love,
