Adam Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Friends- For the 3rd consecutive year, we are helping send kids who live with Muscular Dystrophy to Summer Camp! These kids are incredible, and are born with a disease that not only limits their life, but gradually diminishes their ability to walk. Last year's camp, together with our match of your generosity, we donated $3,200, and sent 4 kids to MDA Camp! (Our members donated $1,600, and Adam's and our team members matched that donation. Expenses are $800 per child for the camp that changes the life of each and every kid, FOREVER!) We are doing the same this year, only this year, we increased our goal from $1,600 to $2,000. If we make our goal, we will send 5 kids to camp for $4,000!! Imagine being a kid, and as you grow up, instead of becoming more capable, you become less...and less....and eventually need a wheel chair to get around. This tugs at my heart, and we are blessed to help these young people for a 3rd straight year. Here is a video about the Summer Camp 2011: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa7qqiJxiMQ]2011 Muscular Dystrophy Video - YouTube[/ame] If your heart is called to donate, we are matching every dollar donated 100%. Even $5 helps, and adds up! Your $10 means $20 goes to help one of these great kids!

If you have healthy happy kids, grandkids, brothers, sisters, nieces or nephews, then take a look at what these kids with MD are facing. Open your hearts and GIVE!
