Kidney Walk - November 7th

Some of the wonderful O&DS folks at Media General have decided to put together a team to raise money and walk in the Kidney Walk in Richmond on November 7th in honor of Candi’s transplant (aren't they sweet?). The Kidney Walk supports the National Kidney Foundation’s efforts behind education and research of kidney disease and transplants.

I will be participating and we are hoping that Candi will be able to participate as well (it is 6 weeks after the surgery so we will have to see). If you are a Media General employee (or a friend of a Media General employee) and would like to participate, you can sign up at: http://donate.kidney.org/site/TR/Walk/Virginias?pg=entry&fr_id=2850. Just click on “Join a Team” and select Media General.  If you have any questions on the walk, feel free to ask!

Can’t walk with us but still want to help? Please consider supporting our effort through a donation to the National Kidney Foundation by going to my page here: http://donate.kidney.org/site/TR/Walk/Virginias?px=1712248&pg=personal&fr_id=2850. Every gift, big or small, helps!  If you make a donation online, the National Kidney Foundation will instantly send you a thank you email with a pdf receipt that you can use for tax purposes.

I will post some pictures from the walk after November 7th. Thanks for your support and please keep praying for a successful transplant!!!
