To my blog friends: If you make a donation of $10 or more I will give you two links, one in the side bar and one imbedded in a post just for helping out a great cause. Just leave comment after you make the donation.


On May 20th, my family and I will participate again in MDA's Stride & Ride to help "Jerry's Kids®". This year I will have honor of riding as Ms Wheelchair America 2007. For those of you who do not know, I was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy at the age of 10 and the MDA has been an important part of my life ever since. With the help of family and friends, I have been able to make a live check presentation during the Warwick MDA Telethon the past two years, last year the check was for over $1500.

Your donation would help MDA continue the important fight against muscular dystrophy. Check out my web page by clicking on the link at the beginning of this e-mail. There you'll find all kinds of information about MDA, and be able to make your tax-deductible donation on-line using your credit card. I can also accept checks (made payable to the MDA) and cash.

MDA serves people in our community with neuromuscular disease by providing clinics, support groups, assistance with the purchase and repair of wheelchairs, braces and communication devices, and summer camp for kids. MDA also funds research grants to help find treatments and cures for some 43 neuromuscular diseases that affect people of all ages, right here in our community.


On behalf of the families MDA serves, thank you!

Warmest Regards,

Autumn Grant
