I've put together a team to walk this Sunday in Walk for Kids 2011.
www.walkforkids.org if you want to read more info.
My team is raising money for Camp Ronald McDonald, a camp for kids with cancer and their family. I'd like some help from guild members if you guys are able to part with even $5. You can donate to me directly by going to www.walkforkids.org/nicholeowens or a general team donation at www.walkforkids.org/pursuitofhappiness
This cause means a lot to me because I saw first hand what this camp does for kids. My brother was diagnosed with cancer so we had the privilege to attend the camp and I was able to see how happy a child with cancer can be. Out of the hospital and in the freedom of wilderness but still have medical attention when they need it. Kids learned how to be kids, they were able to escape the stark white hospital rooms or being locked up in the house. Best of all, they were able to meet other children with cancer who had similar experiences and understood each other. Siblings met with others who knew what it was like to face the though of losing a sibling and parents met with other parents to learn how to cope and stay strong.
This is a great cause.
