From TEAM UPA!

We are friends in Cincinnati running in the Flying Pig Marathon which will be on Sunday May 3rd, 2009. We are joining efforts to run and raise money for Diego and UPA! Cura Duchenne. 
 
Diego is a 4 year old boy who suffers DMD (Duchenne Muscular Distrophy), son of our friends Alex Ramirez & Leslie Guzman. Diego is a very sweet and charming little boy.
 
What is DMD? Below you will find a quick snapshot: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pa_XFqNbsxM&feature=related
 
As part of our commitment, we are setting the goal to raise at least $7,000 which will serve to support specific promising projects that will help us increase the chances of giving Diego and other boys affected by Duchenne a chance for a lifetime and a better life to many kids in need in Latinamerica.
