Involving my college

Post by hope16_05 »

For awareness I am going to involve my college and attempt to get my OT class to help me spread the word by setting up a fundraising event where other students can learn about what its like to live a day in my life.

I would also like to organize a walk like Tanya is doing. Even if its just my close friends and I, its better than nothing but I am going to try and involve my college community as well as my home town community)

As Awareness committee chair, I will be working on making a brochure for awareness that we can have as a pdf on UBPN.

If anyone is willing to donate their time on a regular basis and would be interested in being part of an awareness committee, please send me an email at amy@ubpn.org
If you can not donate time on a regular basis but would like to share ideas for awareness please feel free to post them in this message board and/or email me.
Lets spread awareness and stop this injury!!!
