Asking For a Little Help Guys...
Hey all,
As many of you know, my little boy has Autism. He's a brilliant little guy and his teachers tell me that with the way he's been progressing, and all of the extra help he's received, he will likely be one of the very lucky ones that won't really have too many obstacles later in his childhood. Hunter was diagnosed a couple years ago and his mom and I, (and some close friends of mine) have really been very proactive. We've made sure he's always had whatever he's needed and that's included the best teachers our schools have to offer. Well, later this month we're participating in the puzzle walk and I've been collecting donations via their website under Hunter's name. So far, (just in 24 hours) I've already collected 300. My goal is 500 but I'd like to beat that as well. If you can spare anything or even just spread the word, I'd really appreciate it. Here is the link to my son's page. All donations are deductible and it really goes to a great cause. Thanks guys! Anything you can do is much appreciated.

Oh and since we've raised the most pretty much in the history of this event, it looks like Hunter will be throwing out the first pitch at the O-Royals game next month.
He's going to go absolutely ape-shit bananas. He loves baseball so much. |

Well, there's a possible issue with that. Apparently, since I'm collecting donations via a "corporate sponser" (hunters school) he might not be eligible.
I'm sure they'll do something special for him but who knows? I was reading the prize list for individual supporters and they give away some nice stuff but he might not qualify. Which IMHO would be horse shit since it's the same thing and I've put more into this than anyone else. I'd he does get to throw the first pitch, it'll be late May. |
