Buddy Walk Time
It's Buddy Walk time again, folks. I'm a little behind the ball here - as I have been with a lot of stuff lately, but anyway, it's time to start fundraising!! Last year Lilly did great, she raised just over $2000 buckeroos. So hopefully we can meet last year's fundraising this year.
I just added the widget to the left - you can easily donate by clicking on that button. If you'd rather, you can click HERE to go straight to Team Lilly Pad's fundraising page. The First Giving page is a little different this year, I can't figure out where to put our "target", so please excuse that the widget says our target is $0!! But it is still very easy to use for donating. And don't forget all donations are tax deductible!
If you don't know or have forgotten, we are fundraising to help support Family Connections of SC and to promote awareness and educate people about Down syndrome. Funds go mostly to the Family Connections organization, but some also goes to the National Down Syndrome Society and research. Not many people are aware that Down syndrome, or Trisomy 21, is the MOST common genetic "boo boo", yet it is the LEAST funded in terms of research! Now that's just pathetic.
So come on out and support our Lilly Pad and all her buddies. We'd love you to donate to the cause and we'd love to see you walk with Team Lilly Pad on October 23rd. It was a blast last year and I expect the same this year!
The Buddy Walk this year will be held Sunday, October 23rd from 1 pm to 5 pm at Saluda Shoals Park in Columbia.
