I am participating in an event to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. I am writing this forum post to ask for your help. The MDA has made it very easy to contribute online and learn about the association at the following URL:

Just click on the "Help Bail Me Out" graphic to make a donation.

The main MDA website is located here:

I realize that everyone has a lot going on, and you may already have committed your resources to other charities. This is by no means a high pressure pitch to ask for donations, but if you can help out the cause I would greatly appreciate it. Although the website asks for a $63 donation, which is what it costs to fund a minute of research for treating Muscular Dystrophy, any amount would be greatly appreciated. There are no minimums and any amount will be sincerely appreciated. If you have any friends or associates that may be able to contribute, please send them a link to my donation page. I am able to accept donations through the end of the day on May 16th. Thanks for your help!

I did an MDA lockup one year - it was a lot of fun...the cops came to my office and "arrested me for MDA" and I went "downtown" to the local Grocery store where we were "locked up" and had to make 5 phone calls to friends family business workers etc asking for donations. We had refreshments etc after we were done "doing our time" - it was really a great idea and I got a free ride in a police cruiser without being in trouble!
