Scleroderma Sucks!

Our friend Tori Anderson is one in a million. She has a beautiful voice that echoes the beautiful person that she is. We've enjoyed her musical journey with Possum Holler for many years. She's gorgeous and talented. Unfortunately, she is also 1 in 300,000 of people who have been diagnosed with Scleroderma. This disease has no known cause, and no known cure.

We've walked with Tori for the past two years in her Walk With Tori, and we'll be doing it again this year, on September 8th at Doub's Woods Park in Hagerstown. The past two walks have generated $78,000 towards research at The Scleroderma Center at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. It's been so inspiring seeing the hundreds of people who turn out for this event, including Dr. Thomas Medsger and members of his research team at UPMC.

Please join us this year. Walk, donate money, donate a silent auction item. Get a team together and walk together. Bring your checkbook -- you'll be amazed at the wide variety of quality silent auction items that grace the tables.

For more information, you can email tori@wayz.com or walkwithtori@yahoo.com, or you can call Tori at 717-597-9200. Mail donations to PO Box 327, Hancock MD 21750; checks should be made out to "Walk with Tori." Join the Facebook page for breaking information, or to network with other walkers.
See you there!
