Title: Walk for the PKD Foundation
Post by: Darth Mandarb on Mon 12/09/2005 18:50:53
Hey guys and gals!

My cousin Hannah has a disease called PKD (polycystic kidney disease) (http://www.pkdcure.org/site/PageServer?pagename=pkdabt_aboutPkd).

She is a young, adorable budle of joy:

On September 17, she (and her mother and some other members of my family) are participating in a "Walk for PDK" charity type thing.  Basically it's to elevate awareness of this disease and raise money to fund more research towards a cure.

I donated money and felt like I had done my part.

Then my brother and his wife donated, AND he got some of his friends at the forums he attends to donate too.  I hadn't thought of this approach so I thought I'd post here to see if anybody here would be interested in helping out.

Click here to make a donation on Hannah's behalf (http://www.pkdcure.org/site/TR?px=1091068&fl=en_US&s_tafId=1548&pg=personal&fr_id=1156)

I know these types of posts are usually frowned on 'round here, but this is slightly different.  The money doesn't go to me, or even a person, but rather to a foundation.

I am not expecting anybody to donate and I won't be disappointed if nobody does, I just thought I'd post here to see if anybody was interested.

Even if the only thing I accomplish is making some of you aware of this disease I'll feel I have done something :)

Thanks for any and all help!
