Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Fellow Axiomites please read!!

I did get the okay from Axiom to post this fundraiser.

I am participating in a wheelchair relay to raise money for a great cause. The Canadian Paraplegic Association is an amazing organization. They have helped me immensely, whether it be assisting with my initial transition from the hospital to my home, setting me up with therapists etc. in my community, they purchased my electric front door operator, front door intercom, and the most important thing that they did (thanks to Heather Hollingshead) is help me get attendant care, without which I wouldn't be able to live in my own home; I'd be living in a complex and I would have far less freedom than what I do now. They have also been an excellent resource for information and guidance; I don't know where I would be without them.

I know this is specifically Canadian, but I also know there are many good people on this forum that would be willing to help out regardless.

Please sponsor me and help make a difference. Together, with your support, we can reach and even surpass our fundraising goal!!

Here is a direct link to my page where you can make a donation and learn more about the event.

Thank you very much everyone. If you would like to know anything more about the organization etc., feel free to ask.

Oh yes, you do get a tax receipt for any donation over $5, but I don't know if it works for US residents.

It’s an honour to support you Cam. Pictures of you in your relay rig would be cool.

On on!

Dean, thank you very much for the pledge. I'm getting up today so hopefully I will be able to get a couple pictures. My sister is also participating and using my manual chair so maybe she will come over also.

Thank you very much Wayne (FordPerfect) your donation is greatly appreciated.

All the best my friend.

Dean, I didn't get a chance to take any pictures today as I was late watching The Last Samurai, so hopefully oh get to take some tomorrow.

So far we are at $840!! 84% of the way!!

Thanks Zimm, very much appreciated, you're a great guy.

All you guys are awesome!!!

I tried to sign up for a donation on your page, but it required a Canadian Province and zip code. (Odd, as it allowed me to select United States as my country)

Is there another page I can go to?

When I picked United States it wouldn’t let me chose Arizona until I started typing my address. Then it let me pick U.S. states rather then Canadian provinces.

Pictures on race day would be neat if you don’t get a chance before.

How did you like Last Samurai? I went into it not expecting to like it much but actually did.

Just checked your page and it looks like you’re at 94%.

Come everybody, lets put Cam over the top!

Cheers,
Dean

Thanks Adrian, Lorenzo1000, bren, onn, and I received another donation from a Mark G (not sure if you're a member of the Axiom forum), but if you are, thank you very much along with everyone else.

We've surpassed the goal thanks to all of your support!! I have three more days and some more pledges to come from friends and friends of friends!!

As I mentioned before, you guys are awesome!! I'm not stopping yet though, in fact I've increased my goal in hopes of generating more pledges!!

Thank you very very much.

Cam

PS. My sincerest apologies if I've forgotten anyone.
