Support Working 2 Walk
At Unite 2 Fight Paralysis, we are committed to offering unique
opportunities for the paralysis community to advocate on behalf of a
cure. As part of our commitment, we take responsibility for making
our events and activities educational, affordable, and of the highest
quality.
If you appreciate the work of Unite 2 Fight Paralysis and have
the means, we hope you will consider a financial contribution to
support our efforts. All of our work (including the hundreds of
hours spent organizing Working 2 Walk) is done on volunteer time. We
are fortunate that several generous sponsors have come forward to
support W2W, but
we still need to raise additional funds to cover our expenses.
The costs of venue rental, catering, and equipment in Washington DC
are considerable.
Please consider a donation to Working 2 Walk and demonstrate your
support for this event and the pro-cure movement. Unite 2 Fight
Paralysis is a tax-exempt, 501c3 organization. Visit our
Contributions
page to donate with a credit card via Pay Pal or get information on
where to send a cheque. Thank you!
