METRO CHARITY UPDATED 03/29/10 Metro NY PCA 2010 Charity, Hope for Javier: Help "Fuel the Cure!" Every year the Metro Region chooses a charity to support. This year it is Hope for Javier, a nonprofit public charity, which was formed by Jen Portnoy and Rich Romero (Metro member) in honor of their son, Javier. Javier is five years old and the pride and joy of his parents. Javier has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a rare, degenerative, fatal muscle wasting disease which affects 1 out of every 3,600 male infants. There is no cure. Life expectancy is early 20s. The mission of Hope for Javier as quote from their literature: "to cure Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) in time to save Javier's life and the lives of thousands of boys like him." Money raised goes directly to research: "to focus on moving science from the lab into clinical trials and to support efforts to promote advocacy in order to maximize the collective DMD research investment, moving the field forward." Every dollar goes to funding research to find the cure and treatment for this deadly disease. To try and raise as much money as possible, we are forming a committee to help with the implementation of the fund raising activities planned for the year. We are looking for a few good people to give of their time to help a great cause. Each of us is truly fortunate to have the resources and time to enjoy our Porsche passion together. Let's harness some of those resources and some of that passion to help "Fuel the Cure" and make a difference in the lives of those who are less fortunate. For more information on Hope for Javier, go to: www.hopeforjavier.org To volunteer to help with our fund raising efforts contact: Karen Gillette: khgillette@yahoo.com with the subject line: "Fuel the Cure" or call 631-734-5145.
