Raising For Ray: Why Fundraising?

Dear Friends , We have opened an on-line shopping mall to help us raise money. All we need you to do is use our mall to shop at the stores you already shop at on the internet. We have over 600 national stores where you can shop. To make things really easy and to make sure we get credit for your online purchases click on the following link and download our Shopping Wizard. Once it is downloaded we will get cash back whenever you shop at any of the participating stores. That's all there is to it. Click on the following link to download the Shopping Wizard. You can also shop directly through our Mall at: http://www.visitourmall.com/FriendsofRayDonald The really cool thing about the mall is that you are shopping at the actual store websites that you would shop at anyway. They give us special discounts and coupons for our mall and we get to keep a percentage of the sales generated. I hope you will help us out by downloading our Shopping Wizard and shopping online. (Many folks are doing their Christmas Shopping using our mall!!) Thanks so much, The Donald Family p.s. Please forward this email to everyone you know. It will really help us reach our goal!

Why Fundraising?

During Ray’s time at the Mason Transplant Clinic at Piedmont, the transplant team highly advised that he begin fund raising for the liver transplant and ongoing medical bills and health care. The cost for the transplant itself before insurance is appxromitly $400,000.000 There will also be added cost such as doctor visits (before and after), tests, lab work, hospital stays (length depending on how well his body accepts the new organ), a minimum of 8-11 monthly prescriptions (raging from $11.00-$3,300.00) and a minimun of 3 to 6 months out of work with no salary or pay for recovery time, and any other medical care involved. Our goal is to raise around $70,000.00 and this number is only based on the transplant going smoothly and "by the book"! Please check back in every so often to learn about future fund raisers!
