APFED's HOPE CHALLENGE
APFED has set a goal for 2007
to double its HOPE Research Fund! If everyone who reads this donates a minimum
of $10 OR MORE!, they will reach their goal. "We
challenge everyone who uses the APFED web site for information for themselves,
their child, or simply to better understand eosinophilic disorders to watch our
'Just A Glimpse' video. After viewing it, consider sharing it and send the link
to it to your entire address book. With these simple steps, with the community
coming together we can make a tremendous impact for now and for the future of
eosinophilic disorders."
There is Hope on the Horizon, and together, we can reach it.
Thank You."
