Team JD Wristbands

Team JD Kids glow-in-the-dark awareness wristbands are in....
 We didn't get a chance back in August to do any fundraising for any one cause that we believe in so much! With these wristbands we hope to be able to do that now!

As most of you know we are trying to raise money for JD a new handicapped van. What better way to raise a little money towards his van fund then with awareness wristbands! But, we wanted to share this fundraiser with the other SMA kiddos as well. So we thought of MJ over at B4SMA ~ Blankets for SMA Kids. BECAUSE she has done so much for JD and for so many others, but when I approached MJ with this idea she suggested something a little different. MJ, being who she is and the heart that she has, wanted to forward these funds to Marshall's Miles in honor of B4SMA. How wonderful is she....Always thinking of others! You amaze me MJ! I am so honored to have you as my friend!   MJ's wish is my command!

Get your Team JD Kids glow-in-the-dark wristband now!

 Wristbands are available for a $5.00 donation/each.
$2.00 from each wristband will be donated to Marshall's Miles,
