What a wonderful story from the Felix family of Arizona. Their outreach effort snowballed into a generous Christmas act of kindness. Here is the story by Jaci Felix:
My husband works for UPS and he gave out letters to his co-workers asking for donations for UFTC. One of his co-workers is married to a realtor (Tammy Henderson) at Century 21 Northwest Realty in Glendale, AZ. The woman who owns that Century 21 (Rodica Bartels) also happens to own the house that we rent. Tammy and her husband donated $100 to the UFTC already, but Tammy also gave the letter to Rodica. In the very wonderful season of giving, the entire office decided instead of buying gifts for each other that they would chip in for Unite For The Cure. They collected an amazing $1350 for UFTC!! I was in shock and humbled. My husband and I are blown away by their generosity and so very appreciative.
This is truly wonderful. Thank you Felix family for sharing this act of kindness and thank you Rodica Bartels and Tammy Henderson for organizing such a thoughtful Christmas gift. Funding research to change the future of SMA is a true gift indeed.
