2008-10-18 23:34:04 by Ed Jelinek



Megan Gavin walked for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation on October 5. I know this is past but I am sure they would still welcome the funds. Here is a part from Megan's letter:

"As many of you know I work for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. This is my third year as Walk Manager for the Ron Santo Walk to Cure Diabetes...Go Cubbies! This year we are celebrating the 30th annual Walk on October 5th.

At my Walk site I am responsible for raising over 1.3 million dollars on one day. In Chicago we have 5 Walk location and our crossite goal is 6.1 million. The Walk is JDRF's largest fundraiser.

As much as I love my job, and I want to help the 3 million people affected by this disease, I really want to help my MOM. She is my insiration, role model, my go to gal, and the reason I do what I do every day. She is a type 1 diabetic and I want to find a cure for her.

I know times are tough and each one of you have your charity of choice but I am hoping that you will find a way to support something that is near and dear to my heart and to my family. Please click on the link below to make a donation to my Walk team, Megger's Team."
