Many of you know about my daughter Allison. One of the best things was to have her this summer at home being a normal little girl. For many children "normal" is not an option. Hole in The Wall provides a summer camp for children with cancer and other blood related illnesses in an environment that makes each individual child, their caregiver and parents feel as if they were "normal." The funds that are raised go to ensuring each child, their caregiver and parents need not worry about any expenses while at the camp.
As a member of Team Hole in the Wall, I am using my participation in the
Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend on January 9-10, 2010
as a way to raise funds for and bring awareness to Hole in the Wall Camps. I am committed to raising $2,000. Please help me reach (or even exceed!) my goal by clicking on my support button. With your generosity, we can all share in the joy of knowing that we are helping to create memories that will last a lifetime.
Every summer at Hole in the Wall Camps, hundreds of children become athletes and actors, painters and poets, swimmers and singers, clowns and canoe paddlers, naturalists, equestrians, and hot air balloonists. It is amazing what these campers accomplish in one week; just as amazing are the obstacles they overcome on a daily basis, for these children suffer from serious illnesses such as cancer, sickle cell anemia, HIV/AIDS, and hemophilia. Camp helps keep them going – throughout the many challenges of serious illness.
