With a Little Help from My Friends

WalkAmerica 2007 is just 4 days away, and we’re counting on YOU!

What is WalkAmerica? Each year, the March of Dimes organizes an event to raise money to find and fight the causes of birth defects and premature birth. Over a half million babies are born before they’ve reached 37 weeks gestation every year! Our team this year (Me, Danielle and Aunt Liane) will be walking and raising money and awareness in celebration of Jeffrey’s great accomplishments. It’s been 14 months since he came home from the NICU at just under 4 pounds. For those of you who’ve been following this blog since the beginning, you’ll remember what a long road it’s been. We’re very proud of our boy!

Jeffrey would like to thank those of you who’ve already used the online form or sent donations through the mail (Thanks Great Grandma & Grandpap Sheppard!). Each of us has set a goal of $500. Won’t you please consider joining our cause? Click here!

WalkAmerica is happening all over the country. Won’t you consider walking at an event near you?
