Walk to find cures

There are so many new diseases and illnesses in this day and age. Breast cancer to aids and epilepsy and the list goes on. We knew of these things for a while but with new technology and the support of the american people we have helped the search for a cure come a long way. I have a list of profitable walks/runs to help raise money for these illnesses and would love if you would take some time out of your day to attend and support the cause. I will blog them a.s.a.p. I am also trying to partner with a few of these charities so you can make a donation right here from my site. Until then i can provide the adresses and names of these place and you can send a donation that way if you are unable to attend a fundraiser.
