Random act of amazing generosity!!!
I just wanted to share an incredible story with you. I got a call from Ken (Cure Tay-Sachs Foundation) last week to ask me if I knew someone who made a very very very sizable donation since the person was from Maryland. I did not know the woman - however I asked around and found out something very touching. My very good friend Kara often wears a Conner's Way Foundation t-shirt (it has a very very cute picture of Conner on the back) - this woman asked Kara about Conner - and she then gave her one of my CTS business cards (Im on the board). How incredible that a perfect stranger took the time and kindness to hear our story and lend a helping hand. This perfect stranger then made a donation to the Cure Tay-Sachs Foundation. Did I yet mention that it was a very large 20 thousand dollar donation? So touching! I was completly stunned. It amazes me everyday that Conner was able to impact so many people. We miss him terribly - every second of everyday! Due to the economy and our newly expanded (and sleepy) family this year - we regretfully have opted to put off our annual event until the spring - so any donations made in Conner's name to the Cure Tay-Sachs Foundation are very appreciated!!! I am offering limited photoshoots for the rest of the year and I am donating all my fees to the Cure Tay-Sachs Foundation. I have done one shoot already - but I am accepting a few more shoots for November ( http://www.connerswayphotography.com/ )
