Julie, Cam, Kai and Lilah will be ever so grateful.
You see, Peter is a child waiting for his mommy to come and get him. He is in dire need of heart repair. His family must be ready to get him when the shutdown is over. They MUST be fully funded in order to get to him, bring him home and turn him over to the expert cardiologist at Texas Children's Hospital.
Peter was blessed by the efforts of Patti (A Perfect Lily blog) getting his story out and her fundraising efforts. Peter started out with a grant all his own of $15,347 and Julie has been raising money ever since. Their fund is filling up at a nice steady pace but there is MUCH to be done still. Julie is shooting for a grant of $25,000 so they have wiggle room and then she can donate the remainder of their fund to another little boy who has won a very special place in her heart.
I have added a link to Julie's FSP for Peter. She is running a Dell Laptop Giveaway til July 5th. Leave a comment HERE for the amount you have donated and I will get the list to Julie of donors here so that you get added to the Laptop Giveaway. If you donate $10 you will get one option, $20 will get you 2 options, $30 will get you 3 options---you can also earn freebies by sharing on Facebook, blogging or Tweeting about the giveaway.
