The following is a letter I received from a friend, Heather, who is trying to raise money to research Cystic Fibrosis. If you would, read the letter, and if you're so inclined, consider donating a little pocket change to help out the cause. I'd certainly appreciate it, as would my friend, as would Finnegan. Thanks very much.
Hello Family and Friends!
Once again, I am a member of Team Finnz Friendz at the Great Strides
Walk to help my friends Pat & Kerry Burns and their son, Finnegan, who
has Cystic Fibrosis.
Cystic fibrosis is a devastating genetic disease that affects children
and young adults. Advances continue to be made in finding a cure, but
your help is needed now - more than ever - to help keep up the momentum
of this life-saving research. Too many young lives depend on this vital
research to let it go unfunded!
GREAT STRIDES is the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) Foundation's largest and most
successful national fund-raising event. This year, I'm walking in the
GREAT STRIDES event at Roger Williams Park in Providence, RI on May
12th, 2007. Please help me meet my fund-raising goal of $150 by
sponsoring me. You'll feel confident in knowing that your generous gift
is used efficiently and effectively: nearly 90 cents out of every dollar
you contribute goes directly toward supporting research and specialized
care that improves the quality of life for those with CF. And, it's
tax-deductible.
Making a donation is easy and secure! Just click on the link below to
make a donation to my fund-raising page where your donation will be
credited to my team. Any amount you can donate is greatly appreciated!
Donating to GREAT STRIDES is such a simple and effective way for you to
show your support for this important cause. Together, we can make a
difference in the lives of those with CF! Once again, thank you for
supporting the mission of the CF Foundation!

Thanks in advance for your donation and support to help a great family,
and all who have Cystic Fibrosis!
