What can $1.00 Do?
We've all witnessed what a single $1 can do if people are
willing take a few minutes and mail it. Just think of all of the
yellow bracelets that you see around - I hear Lance Armstrong
raised more than a million for cancer research. I'm going to try
to do the same! Ok -- maybe not a million, but heck what about
$1,000 or $5,000 or even $10,000. I'm asking you to give a $1.00
-- not for a yellow bracelet or any bracelet at all -- but just
for the knowledge that you will be helping families and kids
living with SMA -- helping them get the proper equipment,
medicine or other support that insurance may (and does) deny.
Or maybe it will just be used to send the kids something to
brighten up their day or even to help pay for some of the
growing piles of medical bills. Or God Forbid, help the parents
pay for the funeral expenses of the child they lost to this
disease.
If
you feel like you can spare your dollar -- here is what I am
asking you to do:
1.
Get your $1.00 (more if compelled)
2. Write the "SMA Hero Malorie" somewhere on that dollar.
3.
Put it in an envelope and send it to:
SMA Support Inc. PO Box 6301 Kokomo, IN 46904-6301
And
last but not least
4.
Forward this email on to all of your family and friends, if you
would please.
