Be Part of a Million Dollar Miracle - OT
Hi there - your ever-loving and good-looking mod here! I don't normally do this, but since this is my comm and since I know at least 48 people read it, I'd like to take a minute to tell you about something that is very important to me.
I know we have low participation in this comm, but honestly, this is the easiest thing I will ever ask you to do. I swear. It doesn't matter if you can write - if you can navigate the Interwebz, you can SAVE LIVES and take part in a MIRACLE.
Chase Community Giving is offering $1 million to a charitable organization. The top 100 organizations were chosen through a vote on Facebook.
This $1 million has the ability to change the lives touched by the organization. In this case, it might actually save lives, too.
- Spinal Muscular Atrophy is the #1 genetic killer of kids under the age of 2.
- 50% of those diagnosed will not see their 2nd birthday.
- Kids who survive are dependent on machines to help them breathe, move, and eat.
- They lose the ability to do many things we take for granted, including sit, talk, walk, swallow, cough, and breathe.
- The mind is NOT affected and kids with SMA are bright and social.
- 1 in 40 people is a carrier.
- There is NO treatment and NO cure.
- The National Institutes of Health have said that SMA is the disease "CLOSEST TO TREATMENT."
With odds like that, wouldn't YOU like to be part of a miracle?
YOUR VOTE will help the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation win $1 million - a million dollars that will go towards research for a CURE. The Gwendolyn Strong Foundation has already won $25,000, just for being one of the top 100 charitable organizations chosen by voters on Facebook and awarded by Chase Community Giving.
Please consider voting from January 15th - January 22nd to help CURE SMA! Head over to VoteForSma to find out more.
The Gwendolyn Strong Foundation was founded by Bill and Victoria Strong, whose daughter Gwendolyn has SMA Type I. Gwendolyn has already beaten the odds - she is 3 years old.
Gwendolyn deserves a future!
Vote For SMA - and be a part of a miracle... be a part of a cure.
Gwendolyn and her friends - and some of my friends - will thank you.
