Coach to Cure MD

I know its only a few weeks away. That is September 25. It will be one glorious days for all High School and Football players and coaches. They will be participating in a wonderful thing.

Coach to cure MD- MD as in muscular dystrophy. It's a game we all can be part of and help save the lives of thousands of boys who suffers from Ducenne Muscular dystrophy. Are you a player? Do you want to be part of a winning team.

In the past 2 years, they have raised a total of $500,000 from this event. But on September 25, 2010; we hope to raise the $500,000 in one day. I think we can do it. Do you? Sure you do, because today you are going to participate. Today you are going to be part of that winning team. Not just your football team winning, but you too.

Duchenne Muscular dystrophy affects 1 of 3500 boys. And each day, a boy is diagnosed with it. Most of the time you don't even know they have it until they are 5, 6 or 7 years old. My son, Timothy was diagnosed when he was six (6) years old. It was devasting to me that my own son would be affected with this disease. My beautiful baby boy. It could not be. Why Tim? But it happens. It happens to families who have never been affected with it or has any history of it. But it does happen.

We are strong believers and supporters of Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy. Their work is of parents working together not only to find a cure but to help bring more awareness, more education, and the most important thing is to find a cure.

This year, we are participating in the COACH TO CURE MD. Our goal is to raise $1,000 and as a team to raise $2500. But we can't do it alone. We need YOUR HELP to make it possible. Without your game plan participation would make it impossible to reach our goal before 9/25/10.

So this is how you can help. Hopefully, to honor Timothy you will contribute by going to our fundraising site (http://www.parentprojectmd.org/goto/TimothyBird)
or you can text CURE to 90999 and a small $5 contribution will be made.

You can also share this information with friends and family and hope they too will want to help and play the football game by contributing.

Be a team player. Let our ONE VOICE and our ONE TEAM be the winning goal to a better life for these boys and young men.
