GREY'S ANATOMY: INVEST IN LOVE

Join us in raising funds for awareness and research for childhood stroke.  Visit our FirstGiving page by clicking on the FirstGiving widget below and help us reach our $1.4 million goal by May 2, 2009!

Running a campaign is a significant challenge. It is difficult to get a message out to as many people as possible in a short time. This web site is a great way to quickly introduce ourselves and educate visitors on the importance of pediatric stroke, it's impact on the child and their family, and raising awareness.  We hope this site will help you find a support system, guidance to help spread the word about pediatric stroke or even read other's inspirational stories!   We are targeting our focus in a different direction this year - one that emphasizes our survivors and their stories.  Our efforts also include advocating for more research funding to help families affected by pediatric stroke get the answers they seek about cause, treatment, effects and prevention.  We will also still advocate for proclamations and legislative support from our elected officials as it is important to keep our legislators informed about what is important to us.
