STUFF ABOUT ME:
I have one of the best jobs in the world:
I run Able Flight, the nonprofit organization that makes it possible for people with physical disabilities to become pilots. They are people who use wheelchairs, people who have lost limbs, and wounded veterans. Their stories are amazing and I get to watch their lives change forever in just a few months. Check out Able Flight here on crowdrise or at www.ableflight.org.
And check out Freedom Flight 2011. It's a project being organized and run by two of Able Flight's pilots, Heather Schultz and Sean O'Donnell. They were both paralyzed in accidents, and because of their hard work and determination, and with the help of Able Flight, they are now licensed pilots!
They will be flying a 1000 mile trip to meet with wounded vets in different cities to inspire them to overcome their own challenges. And they are asking for your help by donating any amount per mile to make it possible for wounded vets to become pilots.
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME:
You could vote, or better yet, you can change someone's life by donating to Freedom Flight 2011 or directly to Able Flight.

Happy March! This is a month of really awesome holidays. International Women's Day, International Reading Day, Dr. Seuss Day, St Patrick's Day.. and who could forget Alien Abduction Day?
In honor of these wonderful holidays, many of which support women and reading, To Mother With Love is announcing a $500 challenge grant from a local donor. Every dollar donated to our project, up to $500, will be matched! Please give to support the women of Ikenne, Nigeria, who have for so long sacrificed for their children to become educated, but cannot read themselves. If you are unable to donate this month, please pass along this opportunity or become a team member. Thank you for your support!
