Please participate in Footwork For CJD
This is an event this weekend in West Virginia put on by my friend, Nikki Bland, who also lost her mother to CJD. If you visit the Snively family’s blog, you can see a cool video they’ve put together of last year’s event. Even if you aren’t in West Virginia, you can still donate to the cause either through Nikki or the CJD Foundation. If you write a check to the foundation, please write “Footwork for CJD” in the memo so they’ll know you’re supporting the West Virginia walk. You can also donate online at the CJD Foundation’s website through paypal.
Here’s the walk info:
