Ashley Brawner's Fundraising Page
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! This isn't going to be anything super fancy or anything...
I am personally doing this for my mom, in her memory, and for my family(from my children, to my siblings, to my nieces and everyone else). My goal is to raise money and awareness in hopes of a cure. We know that in God & with God all things are possible and I believe that there is a cure to be found and that through prayer, raising funds and awareness we can reach the goal of finding that cure!
There are several ways that you can offer support, you can of course donate funds through this page, OR you can participate in the event and join my team though this page, OR you can simply pray for the event and those participating and those affected by HD. I'm terrible at writing to ask for money for fundraisers so I apologize for this being so short and to the point because I have no idea how to sugar coat it.
Huntington's Disease is what my mom had and was the cause of her death. My brother, sisters and I all have a 50/50 chance of carrying the HD gene, which is a dominant gene. I am doing this for my mom, my siblings and my children. HD has affected my family in many ways and my mom gave a lot of time to try to help in testing for a cure and for treatment. My goal is to continue her legacy, that's why I name my team Pam's Peace. Mom had peace in the midst of the storm because her Heavenly Father gave her peace while she battled this horrific disease. Mom never gave up and I'm not going to either... If I have HD and my efforts will benefit my children then they are all worth it, the time, the effort... all of it. That's the mentality my mom had and I'm adopting as my own... And letting the peace that passes all understanding comfort my past hurts from HD as I go the route to do what I can to fight to find a cure for HD and to continue my mom's legacy.
I hope that you will all prayerfully support me, my team and those out there dealing with HD. If you can financially support too, that is awesome, I would love to meet my goal of $5000 towards funding research for HD.
Please support me, whether financially or prayerfully, as I raise this money and go on this "adventure." I'd love for you to join my team and walk/run with me if you want to as well.
Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts.
Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!
Thanks so much and God bless!!!
