Hello everyone, I hope that this email find you all well.

I am contacting you all today to ask for your help.  A-CHAMP is working closely with Autism United, and several other autism advocacy groups, to raise money for the Hope Walk '08 event taking place on Sept. 28, 2008.  This event will help support our efforts in advocacy for children with autism in each and every state - including right here in West Virginia. 

I am asking for your help in two ways:

   1) Please forward this on to all that you know, so we can spread the word about this fundraising event and increase possible amount of donations for this overall effort, and

   2) Please make a donation to this event and for our efforts in doing everything we can to help support the rights of children with autism, no matter the size of the donation. 

I have never been very good at fundraising events and asking for donations, but I do know that there is no better cause to support than our children with autism and I hope that you will be able to help us in this fundraising campaign.

If you would like to donate to this effort, please visit my website at http://www.firstgiving.com/jamiebailey and donate today.  Also, please note that any donation will be considered a 501c3 donation - which means your donations are tax deductible. 

Thank you for your time and for supporting us in this effort.

Sincerely,

Jamie Bailey
