Sponsor a Child for a Cure 2010 - Don't get left behind!

We are excited to launch the Sponsor a Child for a Cure program nationally!  If your family has wanted to participate in a walk/run event to raise money for research we have created that opportunity.  This program reaches out to families and members of the Society that want to sponsor an affected loved one or a child who has passed away, and help find cures for MPS and related diseases.  Walk/runs across the country will be participating in this program.  The event coordinators are ready for your calls!

All you need to do is:

• Submit a photo of your loved one to the race you wish to participate
• Include the name of your child and address
  
• Get sponsorship and send to the National MPS Society
  

In turn, the event will:

• Assign a runner to participate on behalf of your loved one
• Send you a courage medallion and photo with your assigned participant
  
• Publish everyone and all the money raised in an upcoming Courage magazine
