7/11 to Cure Sanfilippo

It was an amazing day around the country for Sanfilippo awareness today!  Over $35,000 was raised for the Cure Sanfilippo Foundation as part of the 7Eleven (July 11th, get it?) fundraiser!  Over 62 garage sales, lemonade stands, and bake sales were held across the country (and in Brazil!) by more than 15 Sanfilippo families and their supporters to help fund research to cure Sanfilippo Syndrome!

We were able to participate during our trip at Broadway Sandwich Shop in Parkersburg, West Virginian!  A huge thank you to to them for hosting us and offering their support.



     






We had a great set up!  Besides lemonade, we had cookies, bracelets, and blankets for sale as well as lot of informational materials set up to give out.  



Open for business!



Hanging out with Great Grandma and Great Granny!



     

Some quality time with Mimi!



Daddy and Little Sister having fun!



Making friends with the hot dog ladies!




     




Little Buddy was also gifted with an awesome Mickey quilt and book from the ladies at Soothing Stitches.  What a beautiful gift and mission!






Working hard selling lemonade and spreading awareness!







So many amazing friends who came out to support Will!  Can't thank you enough!




Such an amazing and successful day!  But it wasn't just in Parkersburg...



We had several stands in Cleveland, Ohio get in on the action...






And Cincinnati, Ohio...




And Marietta...





From Maryland...




To Minnesota...




To Alaska...



And, of course, Texas!



     

We can't thank everyone enough for what they are doing for our little boy and for the greater issue of bringing Sanfilippo Awareness to the general population!



     

He may think he's a big shot TV star now...



     

...but he's still our little boy.  And we'll move heaven and earth to save him.  But it never hurt to have a little help!  


With WILL Power,
