I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me


........................... We are all in this together and can't even begin to do the work alone... we are the supporters of St Judes Childrens Hosptial. As a whole we the friends of this page try in some fashion or way to give back to the community and try to help the kids who are expercing illness. .... In 2003 I started a drive to raise money for a cause very near and dear to my heart it was simply away I was able to give back. In 1999 I lost my daughter shortly after birth to a maligant tumor. Although doctors first thought she would overcome this and survive that was not to be the case.... in her spirit I have wanted to carry on the fight she tried so hard to do, when you see your new born infant struggling to breath and grasp for another moment so doctors can try and perform miracles to keep her with us it is hard but when you know she is in a better place and is resting it is up to you to carry on her fight.... I am trying to do just that - over the past few years I have held my event at such places as Great America and AllState Arena for a Wolves game my 2008 event was held as a all day cosmic bowling event in Oak Lawn and we are planning for a bigger venue in October of 2009 to continue the fun we all had at last years event, also coming in 2009 I am "stoked" to be joined by some of the best local country talent Hillbilly Rockstarz, Chase Daniels & Western Star along with Yard Fulla Cars are all playing one night for the cause - 5-16-09 at Bobby McGees in Chicago Ridge - my goal each and every year is simple it is.... 1 day where we can all get together and give thanks in some way or another to thoose at St Judes who day in and day out never give up on fighting the good fight to save a child, they never turn a family away because of inabilty to cover medcial bills, they never refuse housing to a family who wants to be at the bedside while their child stays at St. Jude.... this to me is the best and most touching charity I have ever come in contact with and with the help of my friends I am sure we will make this the best fundraiser to date. I once again will be teaming up with US99.5 & ASAP Productions to help promote my 2009 event - so you know I will have plenty of cool prizes and raffle items to look forward to. Last year we had dianmonds,trip to the Bahamas,Hotel packages.... what will we have in the fall of '09... stay tuned but I can assure you it will be well worth your donation to St Jude Children's Hospital fundraiser.... if you are unable to attend a event I throw to benefit St Jude but would like to make a small donation to the cause please feel free to make a check out directly to St Jude Children's Hospital and I will see to it you recive a tax reciept....................
