$5 Can Still Buy Something
In these trying economic times, $5 doesn't seem to go far anymore. If you're lucky, $5 will get you:
-
Just over a gallon of milk -
Just over a gallon of gas -
A large coffee at Starbucks
But a $5 donation to Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy can fund research, raise awareness, promote advocacy, connect the community, and broaden treatment options. A donation of $5 can change lives.
Today, we are asking you to do two things which will take no more than 5 minutes of your time:
-
Take out your cell phone and text the word "CURE" to 90999 to make a $5 donation to PPMD.* -
Forward this email to everyone in your address book, asking them to do the same. The ripple effect will be amazing. Even if you only ask 5 people, who ask 5 people, who ask 5 people - you will have made a difference.
Thank you for believing in Coach to Cure MD, and the partnership Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy has formed with the American Football Coaches Association to raise awareness of Duchenne muscular dystrophy while simultaneously raising money to fund cutting edge research that will end Duchenne.
October 25, 2008 will go down in the Duchenne community history books as a day where our country, while enjoying a great American pastime college football, generously gave to save the lives of young men around the world. So skip your venti pumpkin spice latte today, make a $5 donation, and spread the word.
We can beat this deadly opponent. We can end Duchenne.
