Walk the Talk, Actively Participate in the Cure

I've literally copied/pasted this from a dear little friend's, Natasha Wilson's, CarePage...because it's that important and that good...we can learn big things from little people...isn't it time to walk the talk?  

So...Please make a difference, give back, every $1 donation adds up, this isn't something to think through, it's an easy "I have to do" ~ join and donate towards the Wilson's Fundraising Team...

Walk with me!  

So, I have recently decided to start and give back to all that have been giving to Natasha through this time. There is a walk to help raise money for the Children's Leukemia foundation of Michigan in Grand Haven. I have included all the information below. So, help by donating and come walk with the Wilson's!

The Walk at Grand Haven
The Walk- Grand Haven State Park
Grand Haven, MI
to benefit Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan will take place on Saturday, May 16th, 2009.

Lace Up, Grab A Friend It’s Time For A Walk

We will all walk together for the thousands of Michigan families battling the challenges of leukemia, lymphoma, and other blood related disorders. Support The Walk at Grand Haven and register today by scrolling down and clicking on the link at the bottom of this page.

Your Team Can Do Wonders

Walk as an individual or team up with four or more friends or family members (I have created a team: Wilson’s). When you get together with friends and walk, you will team up against this disease and help Children's Leukemia Foundation of Michigan provide information, financial assistance and emotional support to Michigan families. Start recruiting today!

Helping You In Your Fundraising Efforts

We will help you raise pledges with our Personal Fundraising Pages. By creating a Fundraising Page, you can quickly and easily tell others about your participation and collect donations to your fundraising efforts on-line. Create either a personal or team fundraising page and forward an email link to your supporters to donate to your efforts easily by using a credit card at a secure site on-line. Once you have registered for the walk, click on the link to create your personal fundraising page below.

Every little bit helps

There are no "minimum pledge requirements" to participate, but we encourage every walker to raise a minimum of $100. Every participant who does raise $100 will receive a 2009, The Walk T-shirt. Please join us and walk, so no family has to face their battle alone.
