Here’s another amazingly creative, motivating, and positive fundraiser idea. This one from the Lovelace family in Texas: Pound Out SMA/SMARD.
Devon Lovelace, Dakin’s inspiring mother, has personally challenged herself to lose weight from now through the end of November 2009 and she’s turned her challenge into a fundraiser for Unite For The Cure. What a great idea!
How does it work? Here are two simple ways to get involved:
- Devon is asking for pledgers to pledge one dollar ($1) per pound, to a limit of 30 pounds/$30 dollars by the end of the program. At the end of her challenge in November, pledgers will be contacted with Devon’s final weight loss total — again, keep in mind it will be limited to $30.00. If you are interested in supporting Devon and making a pledge, contact her at poundoutsma@gmail.com.
- Donate a lump sum of whatever amount you would like right now. You can donate by credit card or personal check. For details, please check out Unite For the Cure’s donation page. Please know that 100% percent of your donation will go to Dr. Keirstead’s SMA stem cell program.
Devon is also actively looking for teammates to get involved, so if you’re interested in raising money for a great cause and losing weight, contact her at poundoutsma@gmail.com.
