We are organizing a fundraiser in Hannah's behalf. The proceeds would go towards her educational and medical costs that we will be incurring this year. Hannah has a rare health disorder called CHARGE Syndrome, which affects all of the major senses and gross motor skills. Fortunately CHARGE does not affect the cognitive ability if she receives the correct interventions. Hannah has faced many obstacles in her life and has already overcome more than a person should ever face in ones life especially a child. She is always happy and never complains. Some of the things she has had to endure include open heart surgery, ear tube surgery, hand surgery, and the most current nasal surgery. At 19 months she is currently learning to walk and she is almost there. We work daily with her on language skills and sign language. Due to her complex disorder overcoming the communication barrier is only half the battle. The other half is for us to learn as much as we can about Hannah so that we can provide the best treatments to help her achieve her highest potential. We love our little Hannah! She brings love, hope, and pure joy to our family every day.
The fundraiser will be a bake sale on April 23 at the Wal-mart on Wanamaker.
There are several ways that you could help us have a successful bake sale:
1.Donate items to sell
2.Let us use your oven a day or two prior to the event. We are planning on making large batches of cookies or brownies and we could use additional ovens to bake them.
3. Let us borrow some equipment such as: folding tables, money boxes, or money bags.
4.A babysitter for Caleb
5.A volunteer or two to help man the tables
6.If you are not able to help in any of the ways listed above or you live out of town you may contribute to our “Bakeless Bake Sale”

I am so sorry we can't make the drive out there for the bake sale. The virtual baked goods were awesome ;-)
