Help support me in the Walk for JDRF

Every year I support the Walk for JDRF by forming my own team to walk at the Vancouver Zoo. This year I am a volunteer on the Fraser Valley Corporate Cabinet and I hope that you will support this worthwhile cause in one of the below ways.....

- Have your family portrait taken at Stewart Farmhouse on May 8th and I will donate $50.00 from each portrait session. The cost of the portrait session will be $100.00 and you will get a CD of all the photos.
- Take a Leadership Role: Form your own team within your company. Simply designate a Team Captain(s), set a goal, recruit Walkers, collect pledges and join us on June 13, 2010.
- Make A Corporate Contribution: Support our team by writing a cheque payable to JDRF and mail it to me or pledge me online at www.jdrf.ca/walk. For a minimum donation of $250 JDRF will create a "Gold Sneaker," which will be displayed on event day with your company name.
- Make a personal donation at my pledge site: http://jdrfca.donordrive.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&eventID=804&participantID=46459
Over 300,000 Canadian children and adults live with type 1 diabetes in Canada. It is the leading cause of life-threatening and debilitating complications, such as blindness, kidney disease, nerve damage, heart attack, stroke, amputation and even death. Research advancements are making a difference. Children and adults are living longer than ever with a better quality of life; management tools; and are at lower risk of developing complications.
Thank-you to all my friends and clients for supporting my photography business over the years. I hope that you will be able to support me in this worthwhile cause.
