I'm doing 100 Skips a Day for kids with genetic diseases and I need your help!
Every day this August I'm taking on the Jeans for Genes 100 Skips a Day Challenge.

It's for a really important reason: I want to help the 1 in 20 kids facing a birth defect or genetic disease, like cancer and cystic fibrosis. I'll be pushing myself this August because these kids need our help!

Every dollar raised from my challenge goes to Childrenโ€™s Medical Research Institute and helps find treatments and cures that will save childrenโ€™s lives. Your support will change the future for children living with genetic diseases!

Will you support my challenge? Please donate to my fundraiser now!

My Commitment

During the month of August I will be skipping every day to raise funds for Jeans for Genes ๐Ÿงฌย 

This is an amazing charity that has been running since 1994 (the year that Brandon was born) in order to conduct vital research and provide treatment for children affected by genetic disorders and cancers ๐Ÿ’™

My Commitment:ย 

A minimum of 100 skips per day โœ…

Now some of you may think that this will be an easy undertaking but please remember that I am a busy full-time SAHM, post c-section, who hasnโ€™t skipped in years! AND added to that I am carrying far more weight than the last time that I even picked up a skipping rope ๐Ÿคช

Why am I doing this???

I personally felt a strong connection to this charity because of our Son Owen. As many of you know he was in the NICU, thankfully not affected by any genetic disorders or cancers but in his first year of life we were scared into believing that a diagnosis was very possible. It was a harrowing time for our Family and caused a lot of undue stress. We canโ€™t imagine how our lives would have been turned upside if a diagnosis had been our reality.

So, I have decided to take part in skipping for Jeans for Genes ๐Ÿงฌ

My GOAL:ย 

๐ŸŒŸ $500! ๐ŸŒŸ

I have done it before for WaterAid and the Womenโ€™s Walk for Cancer and I believe that I can do it again, but I need your help ๐Ÿ™‹โ€โ™€๏ธ

What can you do???

Kindly DONATE to my charity page . . . even if it is just a few dollars or the cost of a coffee โ˜•๏ธย 

Your support and generosity is greatly appreciated! ๐Ÿ™
