About Us

Brooke and Brielle have both been diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type II.  There is no cure for this disease but the National Institute of Health believes a cure can be found within the next 5 years with proper funding. 

Our family has created this page to inform you about the disease, spread awareness and give updates about our life with SMA.

SMA Awareness Proclamation Presentation by Senator Tonya Schuitmaker!

DateMonday, August 15, 2011 at 5:12PM | AuthorSarah

We were presented the SMA Awareness Day Proclamation today from Michigan Senator Tonya Schuitmaker!! What an honor!


“All citizens are urged to take interest in and give full support to the effort to raise awareness and find a cure for SMA.”

In celebration of SMA Awareness Day we are planning two fundraisers and need your help in spreading the word!  All money raised will go to The Families of SMA.

 

Fundraiser #1:  Dining to Donate at Applebees.  All Kalamazoo locations are participating and will donate 15% of anyone that brings in a flyer (or just mentions the SMA Fundraiser) on the day of August 22nd.  This is valid for the whole day and only need one flyer per table!

Fundraiser #2: SMA Art Auction!  Brielle and Brooke painted 8 paintings and we are putting them up for a silent auction on their Facebook Fan Page here: SMA Art Auction (created by B&B) for SMA Awareness Month going on NOW and ending on August 22nd, 2011.  Proceeds go to the Families of SMA Organization and your donations are tax deductible!

 

Please help us spread the word to make our first SMA Awareness Day successful!
