STUFF ABOUT ME:
I am a single mother of one trying to make a difference one dollar at a time for people in need! This is my second year volunteering for The Medicus Foundation through their "Gateway2Giving" program. The foundation was developed to raise funds and awareness for deserving causes. The charities that have personally touched our hearts for the last two years represented the following to each of us:
American Pride:
Support Our Troops
Children with Hopes and Dreams:
University Hospitals – Rainbow Babies and Children’s Hospital - Catan Pediatric Oncology Research Fund
Chris Kirkpatrick Foundation - established to enhance the lives of underprivileged children throughout the United States
American Junior Golf Association - Ace Grant - was created to Provide Financial Support to Junior Golfers who have the ability to play in AJGA events – but not the financial resources.
Disease that has affected us:
Team Fox for Parkinson’s Research - dedicated to finding a cure for Parkinson's disease through an aggressively funded research agenda
Go to www.medicusfoundation.org to find out more about us and the charities that we support.
This year the Medicus Foundation is holding its 2nd Annual Golf Scramble at Blue Heron Golf Club, Medina, Ohio on August 7, 2010. We would love to see you there but if you are unable to attend the Golf Outing we would appreciate your support by becoming a Family Sponsor and donating $25 to our foundation.
Thank you!
WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE FOR ME:
I enjoy helping out in any way that I can. If I can help to raise funds to make a child smile, or to help a child survive a horrible disease, or to help a Military Family while their loved one is fighting for our freedom, then I can hold my head high and know that I have made a difference for someone! I might not be the best Volunteer or Fundraiser but I'm decent at it and I can't think of a downside of throwing a vote my way. So please, help me make a difference and "Give Back"!

Happy New Year! A vote from me to you, and remember to find the time to read something this year, in between all the wonderful work you do!
"These are not books, lumps of lifeless paper, but minds alive on the shelves. From each of them goes out its own voice... and just as the touch of a button on our set will fill the room with music, so by taking down one of these volumes and opening it, one can call into range the voice of a man far distant in time and space, and hear him speaking to us, mind to mind, heart to heart." ~Gilbert Highet
