Thank you for visiting our Personal Fundraising Page. On May 1, my family and I are becoming part of the 1st annual CareWalk for thalassemia, a fatal genetic blood disorder.

By being a part of CareWalk, we not only help raise money for the Cooley's Anemia Foundation (CAF)'s fight against thalassemia, we also are showing support for people who must daily meet the challenges of thalassemia.

CAF is the nation's leading advocate for people with thalassemia, who must endure lifelong blood transfusions as often as every two weeks and who battle a wide range of complications, including heart and liver failure, diabetes and hepatitis. The Foundation provides valuable patient service programs, funds important medical research and educates the public, the medical community and elected officials about thalassemia. (For more information, visit www.cooleysanemia.org or call 800-522-7222.)

Your willingness to sponsor us can enable CAF to make a huge difference in the fight against thalassemia. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.

If you are in Chandler area and are interested in joining my family and I for the walk, we will meet at the indoor track of Tumbleweed Recreation Center between 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m on May 1st.

Many thanks for your support - and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
