30 for 30 and other thoughts

30 for 30 started as a project to knit 30 preemie hats by my 30th birthday. But there are many other causes and projects. This tumblr site will be to highlight work of others and my progress with the project. Together we can and will make a difference and improve lives.

causes: Braking the Cycle & Pancreatic-Cancer Walk

I’ll try to regularly highlight an organization or cause that needs some help. Today there will be a bonus of two as two friends are involved with events to raise awareness and needed funding this weekend.

David is participating in Braking the Cycle, a 275 miles ride from Boston to NYC. David has reminded us all that while his ride will end Sunday, AIDS will not.

Kim’s family has been affected by not often publicised but hereditary Pancreatic Cancer. She is walking this Sunday at a Walk her parents started near Albany. I agree with Kim that research is a strong tool to help learn out more and improve survival rates.

Please give what you can. I believe that $1 really will make a difference.
