Do you happen to have a little extra time in a week that you would like to spend helping out a little blondie?
We are at a point where we have received enough ideas an information to start organizing some fundraisers for Sy’s medical costs, so we are officially posting that we need volunteers to help! Whether you are local or overseas, you can help in some way. Please let us know if any of these opportunities interest you:
1. We have received enough information, support, and media coverage to do what Sy would love most: a bowling fundraiser! We would mainly need people to help plan and publicize the super fun event(s). There are several ways to actually raise the funds with this, so we’d need your input and help with that, too. We would need at least 3 people who could jump right in!
2. Are you artistic or crafty? We have a great idea for a small product to sell to help raise funds as well. It’s fun, original and creative. This would take a small amount of design and imagination on how to best mass produce these items so we can get them out as fast as possible and then just get the ball rolling. The more the merrier on this one!
3. We have received word from a group that is going to put on an amazing 5K race and family fun run in Sy’s name in the Oakland/Winter Garden, FL area. We are scheduling this for September 2011, so we have time, but it takes a lot of time and energy to pull off an event like this and make it quality. The group coordinating the race says that they could use about 5 volunteers right now. You would be responsible for parts like T-shirts, publicizing/registration, water stops, and others! Let us know and we’ll pass your name along!
We’ve been working hard to try to get this going, but things like a new job, homeschooling and getting ready for baby #3 have been getting in the way a bit. We need a great partner like you!
Thanks to all of you who are both passionate and compassionate about getting this boy well! By the way, we’re going to blow these events up big, so jump on the wagon…
