ANGELMAN SYNDROME FOUNDATION

2008 ASF National Walk-A-Thon - Chicago

Andrew's Fundraising Page

This year we will be taking part in our 6th Walk.
Thanks for all your support! This is the 10 year anniversary for the ASF walk in Naperville.


As many of you know, my youngest son Andrew has Angelman Syndrome. This genetic disorder is very rare and until recently (1997) there was very little known about it. The past ten years have been positive and with the help of the Angelman Syndrome Foundation, recent years have brought collaboration and support for families. Each year the ASF National Walk-a thon has grown to include more sites and collect more money for research.  My family and friends will be taking part in our 6th Walk on May 17, 2008. Please support our cause by making a donation. You can use this site or contact me directly. Your support is very meaningful to me personally and to the few thousand kids and adults who are affected by Angelman Syndrome. Our walk theme each year is "One Step Closer" and with your support we will again move forward toward enhancing the lives of our Angels and finding a cure.

If you would like to learn more about Angelman Syndrome, Please contact me and I will be happy to share with you. You can also visit the ASF home page at www.angelman.org.

With heart felt gratitude,
John Heinzmann and Family

PS: You can also help to increase awareness about Angelman Syndrome by purchasing and wearing our blue "Band of Angels". My family and I started this campaign and to date have raised over $30,000 dollars through the sale of these bands.
