MDJunction to me

Storm6751"MDJunction to me is somewhere i feel safe i feel i can be myself and not be judged. I love the fact that i get to see that im not alone in what i am going through and i also get the chance to help others on their journey through guidance and communication.
I would truly be lost without MDJunction... to me its my savior, my personal place to go where i don’t feel so alone anymore in the world.

Melisa, It's just great to see anyone involved in raising funds or awareness, no matter what the cause or disease! So KUDO's to you!!! Smile

Laughing If we tried to have a walk for HS people would be saying,"Why are those idiots trying to raise money for Home Shopping? W00t Tongue

Don't get discouraged Mel-- I am sure there are tons of (easy) ways to start fundraising for HS. You could start with a bake sale, lemonade stand, garage sale, car wash... anything that you see others' doing to raise funds for *fill in the blank* just to start. Since so few people even know what HS is, perhaps just bringing the awareness to light would be the first step to starting fundraining! Laughing Good luck if you do decide to begin. Even small steps begin somwehere. ::hugs:: <3 Candace
