In his own words, let Big Brother tell you what he would like to do with his friends…
Remember this post? Running for a Special Cause {Best Buddies 5K} I’m raising funds for this wonderful organization, in honor of Big Brother!
“Best Buddies is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to establishing a global volunteer movement that creates opportunities for one-to-one friendships, integrated employment and leadership development for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.”
I’m running because I believe that friendship is for all. Please consider donating for this great cause. You can find my very own secure donation page here. If every reader donated just $1, I would be able to reach my goal! I encourage you to check out this great organization further by visiting their website. If you can’t donate, please share this post!
Thank you all!

I am attempting to make a donation and getting an error page. Just letting you know. Don’t know if it’s going to go through.
I will try later.
OH! OK, go to this site: http://www.bestbuddiestennessee.org/5k then click on the “sponsor participant” button at the top. Search for Lauren. Should come up as Lauren (Hiking Mama)!! I also owe you an email today! Will be sending that soon

Lauren, this post and video is on mariashriver.com today and I thought you would really enjoy it. Wonderful! http://mariashriver.com/blog/2012/08/my-mission-it-starts-with-a-voice-amy-wright – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8vfZgQyT48&feature=player_embedded#! I shot stills on the Down Syndrome Research and Treatment Foundation PSA last fall which was a wonderful opportunity to see how incredibly loving and special these children are.
OK, this is what I had to do, use Safari browser. I had been trying to use Google Chrome, and it just wouldn’t go through. But, Safari went through right away!
