Hi everyone…

I am personally writing you today to ask you to join me in “making a difference” in lives of special needs people served by HMEA including those at the Maynard Street home - Jason, Matt and Peter (L to R in the picture!

Please support me as I help to raise funds for HMEA at their “9th Annual Independence 5K Walk/Run in the Park” being held on Sunday, May 23, 2010. This event is really spectacular! Unlike other walks or races, this is a real fun-filled family day...full of fun, food, and family activities – even a Kids Fun Run! It’s a great way to support over 2400 children and adults with disabilities.

HMEA has been a leading provider of community-based supports for nearly 50 years. They have been committed to advancing creative and positive strategies for children and adults with significant developmental and intellectual disabilities, and their programs and services serve 2400 people and families in more than 110 Massachusetts communities. To learn more about HMEA please visit their website at www.hmea.org

Please take a few minutes and make the decision to “make a difference” in someone’s life, and support my efforts by...

• making an online tax-deductible donation
• asking your company to match your donation
• creating your own personal fundraising page for HMEA
• donating a raffle item
• volunteering!
  Any of these will be supporting me and benefiting 2400 children and adults served by HMEA!
  
  And, if you know of others who would be interested in helping to “make a difference”, please pass along this page. Thank you!
