Dear Friends – Thank you for visiting my Fundraising Page

  There are 380,000 AIDS orphans living in Thailand, more than five times that of any other nation in Southeast Asia .

  As many of you are aware I have been a volunteer massage therapist with the Heart Touch Project (www.hearttouch.org) for the last eight years, providing compassionate touch massage therapy to men, women and children suffering with life threatening illnesses, stigma of their disease and isolation.  By providing this much needed care to another I have found inspiration and determination to grow and continue this work to others who are in need.  This has become one goal for my life’s work.

  After many years of talking about it one piece of this dream is finally coming to fruition.  Together with an elite team of Heart Touch Volunteers I will travel to Thailand in November 2006 to provide massage to AIDS orphans and also teach their caregivers how to provide massage.  As we have no funding for this project it will not be possible without your support.  

  AIDS remains Thailand's leading cause of Death 

  Nine Thai People every hour DIE from AIDS

  Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.   It is also the most efficient way to make a contribution to my fundraising efforts and is of course tax deductible to the full extent of the law.

   Thailand is at a time when it is ready to embrace those who wish to offer support to their ill and isolated.  It is now that we must reach out and show compassion!

  I appreciate and thank you for opening your heart to make this journey possible. 

  Thank you in advance for your generosity!
