Last week we had a local DJ- Alex Pearson with DJAMP take it upon himself to hold a virtual trivia night for our non-profit and raise $855 from the goodness of people donating to our cause. Such a huge help as we have had to cancel and postpone events due to COVID19. But the research cannot be cancelled or postponed for SIOD. The funding has to stay steady and increase to help save not only our Emily, but other children now and in the future.
We still have our pledge drive for ONE THOUSAND people donating $10 a month for our 2020 goal of $100,000 for research at Stanford. Last week we updated our LGF gear and have some stylin shirts and sweatshirts as well. Our goal is 50 to start to print and we are getting closer. Here is the link to order: https://www.customink.com/fundraising/little-giants-foundation?ref=copy-link_social_desktop-campaign-page-share-top-v3&utm_campaign=desktop-campaign-page-share-top-v3&utm_content=little-giants-foundation&utm_medium=social&utm_source=copy-link&side=back&type=4&zoom=false
Emily is holding her own and knock on wood her numbers are stable enough for her and despite a few more aches and pains most likely due to the decrease in therapy work, she is having good days.
The girls finish distance learning on Friday the 15th and then "summer" unofficially begins. And Taylor-Jo will be turning NINE on the 19th!
Omaha Gives is May 20th although we are taking scheduled donations now at https://www.omahagives.org/index.php?section=organizations&action=overview&fwID=2025
And finally- our gardens are planted although we need to get filler flowers at some point. We are ready to tend to the outdoor life here on our little acreage in Nebraska and get ready for the next event and the next time we get to hang out in person with friends and family.
