Hello All!
On October 20, 2007 I am participating in Walk Now for Autism in
Washington, D.C. Autism research is severely underfunded, considering
the number of children and families effected. If you can, please
please donate via my donation page:
https://www.kintera.org/faf/donorReg/donorPledge.asp?ievent=214840&lis=1&kntae214840=5B0B99C0CBF54993AC8A588B1796E9C6&supId=183328367 Every dollar helps and no amount is too little!
Thanks so much,
Stephanie
