I have been inspired.

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give" ~Winston Churchill.

I have been inspired.

A near and dear friend of mine has just been diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia. His name is Bob. I would like to show him my support and make his life a little more hopeful. His strength and that of his friends and family has been my inspiration in searching for a way to make a difference. I have joined forces with the Hendrick Marrow Program & the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP). The Hendrick Marrow Program is currently working with the Jimmie Johnson
Foundation and The NASCAR Foundation on a nationwide campaign called The
NASCAR Foundation Blood and Marrow Drive to encourage people to give blood and join the NMDP Registry of volunteer marrow donors. Typically there is a fee to join the Registry, but through this campaign, individuals can
join for FREE because of sponsorship from the Hendrick Marrow Program
and Nationwide Foundation. If you are interested, you are welcome to send this
link to everyone you know and ask them to join the Registry because they
may be able to help a patient just like my friend Bob. I am hoping to spread the word on this unbiased disease. I would like to give back and hopefully motivate or inspire someone else to do the same. This is where the journey begins and I am excited and honored to be a part of this life saving event. Please follow the link below and register with the NMDP it only takes a minute. From September 9th to September 22nd registration is free.

Working on Extreme Makeover :Home Edition I am fortunate to help make a difference in communities on a regular basis but it does not stop there, we need to continue finding ways to make a difference. I thank Bob for his inspiration and helping me find another way to give back. Please do the same.

Thank You,
