Fundraising

Dollar Campaign:

    We've all witnessed what a single $1 can do if people are willing take a few minutes and mail it. Just think of all of the yellow bracelets that you see around - I hear Lance Armstrong raised more than a million for cancer research. I'm going to try to do the same :0) Ok -- maybe not a million, but heck what about $1,000 or $5,000 or even $10,000. I'm asking you to give a $1 -- not for a yellow bracelet or any bracelet at all but just for the knowledge that you will be helping families and kids living with SMA -- helping them get the proper equipment, medicine or other support that insurance may deny. Or maybe it will just be used to send the kids something to brighten up their day or even to help pay for some of the growing piles of medical bills. Or God Forbid, help the parents pay for the funeral expenses of the child they lost to this disease.

If you feel like you can spare your dollar -- here is what I am asking you to do:

1. Get your $1 (more if compelled)
2. Write "SMA Hero Brett" somewhere on that dollar
3. Put it in an envelope and send it to
SMA Support Inc.
PO Box 6301
Kokomo, IN 46904-6301 and last but not least

4. Forward this email on to all of you family and friend.

Cookbook Campaign:

I have all the recipes I need for this fundraiser and will post when it is available to be purchased. Thank you to everyone who contributed- it is much appreciated!     

The proceeds from this cookbook will be distributed as follows:

50% of the profits from the cookbook will be donated to SMA Support, an all-volunteer, non-profit, 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization dedicated to providing information and support to family, friends, individuals and caregivers on all aspects regarding this devastating genetic disease. The other 50% will be put in the “Brett Jacob Wilson SMA Fund” set-up at the Bank of America. This fund has been set-up in order to assist us with the astronomical costs of equipment that Brett needs and has been denied by insurance. If you would like further information on this fund, please let me know.
