Fundrasing Garage Sale


We decided to do a fundraising garage sale for the boy's TRAPS disease on Saturday May 2nd. I hope that we can bring some awareness to their condition. We are going to use 100% of the proceeds to help cover the cost of plane tickets to the NIH and if there is money left over to cover their medications which runs $1300 a month. The good thing about the NIH is once they are in the program 100% of their TRAPS medications will be covered. We will just cover the costs of their local medical care & surgeries. Yeah! Thanks to the ward, we were able to bring home the left-over household items from our last ward activity that we will use to sell. My parents are also letting us "de-junk" their basement to donate items for the garage sale. If anyone has anything they would like to donate or need help de-junking just let me know. If I could just get help getting the word out that would be awesome! Thanks

Oh, I'm so caught! I didn't read blogs for a couple of weeks and it's now obvious since I asked you all of this yesterday and obviously knew nothing! Gotta keep up!
