Cystic Fibrosis, please read! Options

[ILuvMyCelica95]

Hey Guys & Girls,

Some of you that I am close to already know this, but most of you do not; My older sister Niki has Cystic Fibrosis. (FYI: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a life-threatening genetic disease that affects the lungs and digestive system. More than 10 million Americans are symptomless carriers of the defective CF gene, Like me for example. More info about CF at : www.cff.org )



Every year my family creates a walking team (Walking for Niki) and we participate in GREAT STRIDES: Taking Steps to Cure Cystic Fibrosis, which is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's annual, nationwide walk. This year is no different; we will be walking on June 4th, 2006 in Wappingers Falls, N.Y.

Each team member is responsible for raising money. I hope to raise $500.00 this year to contribute to my team. This is where you guys come in. Any amount that anyone can donate is greatly appreciated. I don't care if you only donate a dollar.
The link below is a link to my fund raising page, where you can make an online donation to the team. There is also a write up about CF and the walk.
If you have any questions or want any more info just ask.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to read this.


My Donation Page

FYI: Donations will be reflected the next business day

~ Tina

[BlackCelicaGT94]

Is this tax deductible?

[devilsden97]

im not working thurs or friday....just call me, or we'll hang out, and u can give me the info.

[ILuvMyCelica95]

Is this tax deductible?

yes Natalie it is.

[ILuvMyCelica95]

For those of you on the East Coast i figured I'd post this just in case any of you are interested, I know Erik Miguel and Nick all know where this is. My sister and my mom called the bowling alley and they are going to put this together. If the 3 of you want to come ( which would be great *hint hint*) and anyone else We can create a team the team donates the $20. So IMO it's not a bad deal considering we split the $20, get shoes and two games. I have to find out how many members are on a team, when i know I will post again.

BOWL FOR BREATH
APRIL 7, 2006 at HOEBOWL RTE 9 Wappingers starting from 6pm
The donation is $20 for two games and shoes.
All donations to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.

[dustin15brown]

why does it matter if it's tax deductible?

[ILuvMyCelica95]

why does it matter if it's tax deductible?

It's a legitimate question actually, if someone is making a large donation, or even a reg donation. Its like when people donate a car to a foundation of some kind and its tax deductable.

[dustin15brown]

i wasn't saying it wasn't a legitimate question, I was seriously asking.... I didn't know.... I'm just a youngin

[ILuvMyCelica95]

lol. It's okayyyy youngin. It's good because you are making a donation and you get a break as well. It's almost like a reward for being a good person. Idk how elses to put that.

easy for others.

and Thanks to Erik for comming as well. He kicked some serious butt in softball

[devilsden97]

well how much money was raised?

How much did u raise alone?

[ILuvMyCelica95]

Hi All-

Just a note: last year, I showed the donation page to my sister and mom, they were both taken back by the generosity of the members here. I told them I'd post again this year and they asked me to say THANK YOU from them personally.

I figured I'd write in the same thread since it's not that big.
For those of you "out of the loop" please check out the first page of this thread for more specific details.

FYI:
Last year I raised $530.00
My goal was $500

Last our team raised around $6,000.00

All the teams combined raised around $150,000.00.

Of course I am walking again.

The information for this years walk is as follows:

Walk Site: 2007 Poughkeepsie/Wappingers Falls - Bowdoin Park
Date: June 3, 2007
Time: 09:00 AM

My donation page is : http://www.cff.org/Great_Strides/TinaPisani
please remember that ANY ammount is greatly appreciated. I'm not asking for huge donations, like i said last year every dollar counts.

Special thank you to everyone who donated/walked last year:
Erik, Miggy, Steff, Dustin B, Jesse, Nat, and especially RANDY.


FYI:
There is also going to be a 5K run this year in September. I'll update when i get information for that one. I'll be singing the National Anthem to kick off the 5k. I'm excited about that.

[97lestyousay]

I'm pretty broke this year but I will try to do somthing
before the walk. It is a very good cause.

[ILuvMyCelica95]

Thanks Randy You did so much last year, thank you again. :-D

[ILuvMyCelica95]

"THANK YOU for making this year’s

Cystic Fibrosis Great Strides Walk for a Cure

THE BEST YEAR EVER!


Over 1,000 people came out!


We raised a whopping $313,000"


Our team raised around $4,000.00 this year.

It was a great walk. Our team was around 45-50 people.
My sister's husband called right after the walk from Iraq . It was just a great day and it really means a lot to me that people helped out again this year.

[ILuvMyCelica95]
