Hello Again, and a request

Feb 02, 2015 13:48

Happy 2015!  I've been reading LJ but just couldn't find it in me to post.  You'd think I was writing thank you notes (I never finished them from my wedding 30 years ago)!

However I've crawled out from under my rock to beg ask a favor for the Lucinator.  His school is part of the Jump Rope For Heart fundraiser for the American Heart Association and he was sort of forced into participating.  I've set up his website:

and am reluctantly soliciting donations for him.  It's a good cause, but Lucas has severe devopmental coordination disorder & dysgraphia (dyslexic, motor and spatial).  I mean the kid can trip over his own feed just standing still, and there's no way he can jump rope without serious bodily harm.

Even though donations aren't tied to the number of jumps you do, they will still make all the kids try.  I'd really like him to meet his $$ goal, then he can make a token "jump" and say he's done!

So if you have a $1 or $5 and just can't decide what the heck to do with it, donate it and get a tax write off :-) and you'll help boost his self-esteem!
