Recently I joined a group of dancers called the Boogie Woogies for Dance Marathon, which is an event in March that we will be fundraising for to help the University of Iowa Children's Hospital. The funds will go towards paying part of medical expenses for families, comfort kits, holistic treatment of patients, and technology in patient's rooms. My personal goal is to raise $100 or more and the goal for the entire program is to raise $25,000 this year. During the event I will be up and about for eight straight hours in honor of the children at the hospital. This event celebrates life!
As you already know from a previous blog, I am extremely pro-life. That means respect ALL life. I am primarily concerned with abortions, but I do care about all life, including the elderly and the sick. I am very excited to do this event because it will add to my pro-life involvement "profile" and raise money for a good cause and make me feel good that I was able to help people that are less fortunate, which reminds me of another blog I wrote about taking things for granted. I suppose for the most part I take health for granted, but I shouldn't because I could be much worse off. I can't wait to make a difference, help the children, and celebrate life! :)
