Our Cause

"Our Cause" A friend of mine used the phrase, "our cause" when referring to educating people, health care workers, insurance companies and others about Obesity. I've been thinking about what she said since last Thursday and want to share my thoughts. Throughout the year we donate our time and money to people, causes, charities, schools, etc. We generously give without expecting anything in return. Through the 'Walk from Obesity', which is "our cause", we can expect a lot in return. I consider it an investment when we are educating people of the risks, health problems, possible-causes, and most importantly what can be done to fight obesity. So, you may say, that you are unable to walk due to the date. If that is the case, then pledge $10 to someone who is walking. Your voice can be heard through your donation. So, you may say, that you are unable to walk due to your health but you still want to participate. If that is the case, then e-mail me and together we can come up with a volunteer job that you feel comfortable doing at the walk. Your voice can be heard through your support and presence. So, you may say, that you don't know how to register. That is an easy one. Go to www.walkfromobesity.com and register on-line. E-mail me if you have any questions. Your voice can be heard through your footsteps, which helps "our cause".
