Dear friends:

Thank you for visiting our family's Huntington's Disease Fundraising Page.  If you are unfamiliar with Huntington's Disease (HD), it is a devastating, hereditary, degenerative brain disorder for which there is, at present, no cure.  HD slowly diminishes the affected individual's ability to walk, think, talk and reason.  More than a quarter million Americans have HD or are "at risk" of inheriting the disease from an affected parent.   We are fighting against time in order to save members of my family and many others.  

There have been a number of exciting advances this year in the search for a cure for HD. We need your help in raising the research funds necessary to continue that worthy endeavour.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.  It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to our fundraising efforts.  Thank you for your generous support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too!  

Also, please consider participating in our annual 5K in Sugar Land on October 15, 2011. Please follow this link to learn more:  http://www.runtocurehd.com/

Thank you very much,

The Whitley Family
