A few days ago my mom was listening to Wizard 106.7 as she was headed to work. On this particular morning, Kelli and Roadkill Bill were trying to find ten people in our area to commit themselves to helping Le Bonheur Children's Hospital raise at least $106 each. Mom thought it would be a terrific thing for our family and friends to help out with, so she called me and I signed us up!
A little about Le Bonheur...
LeBonheur is a non profit, regional pediatric medical center which provides 225 patient beds and 45 medical subspecialties. In 2010 alone, Le Bonheur treated more that 130,000 children, the majority of which were younger than five years old. Children come from all fifty states to Le Bonheur in search of medical help.
"Le Bonheur Children's Hospital has developed and maintains the largest surgical brain tumor program in the United States. Pediatric surgeons at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital use the most advanced technology and work in conjunction with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital for multidisciplinary therapy for brain tumors."Every single dollar that I raise will go toward helping benefit the children in Le Bonheur. As I said...I committed to raising $106. I only need eleven people to commit to give $10 to make that happen; however, I would really, really love to raise a lot more than that, so if you can give..please do :) This is for a very, very good cause. I encourage you to help out!
