Do Something Good For Once In Your Life

Hey Everyone! I need your help. Well, to be more specific, a friend needs all our help. There is a lovely woman in Boise named Makita who does so many things for others. I'd love to help do something for her and her daughter Brynn (pictured). Recently, Brynn was diagnosed with Retts Syndrome, which is a disorder caused by a mutation on the X chromosome, so it affects only girls and symptoms appear around 6-18 months old. After a seemingly normal development, they begin to see regression in speech, motor coordination and many other areas. It is a very hard disease for both child and parents.

Well, Pepsi is doing a something called the Pepsi Refresh Project and we can help Retts research get a boost of $250,000 from Pepsi if it receives enough votes. It actually has a good chance of getting the money if we all pitch in. Retts is actually a disease that is getting closer to being solved, this money could really help.

All you have to do is CLICK HERE! Every day, click on this link and vote. You can also link to it on Facebook and vote straight from Facebook if you'd prefer. Myself, Caitlin, Pamsky, Makita and Brynn would really appreciate it.

Thanks my friends. You rock hardcore.
