Dear All,
I'm going to be taking part in a charity marathon on the 11th of April 2009 to raise funds for Mute Tourette's Syndrome Society .
Mute Tourette's Syndrome has long been in the shadow of its more 'famous' sister-disease, 'Tourette's Syndrome', and although much rarer, is even more tragic in its consequences. While a child suffering from Tourette's has difficulty in containing its anger and frustration, a child with Mute Tourette's suffers a worse fate, and is unable to verbally express their true feelings. The Mute Tourette's Foundation is using radical new art therapy techniques to help combat the frustration and loneliness of Mute Tourette's.
However, their work can only continue with your help. Just $1 will keep a child supplied with crayons and paper for a whole day. $5 will provide enough art supplies for a week.
I would be extremely grateful if you were able to help such a deserving cause. Attached is a picture demonstrating how the donations received so far have been put to good use and details of how to sponsor me.
Thank you for your support
