First month's giveaway for CF awareness
As I told you a little while ago (actually earlier today) I started a team for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation's walk in April. I was inspired by the Schellenberg's blog. Anyway, the blog's author Leslie commented here and wanted me to tell me about the blog. It's a family blog, so it's not solely dedicated to their daughter Ashley. You can go here to read about Ashley's story as she is growing up with CF.
Now let's get down to business. Over the next couple of month's I will be asking for donations to this worthy cause and will even be giving you incentives to do so. Today I am giving away a mini digital video camera. It's the DXG model 305V and it has 3.o megapixels. I don't know much else about it but you can go here to read reviews of it and go here to download the owners manual (save that link in case you win). Unfortunately I don't have any of the software with it but I will enclose a 1 GB SD card, 4 AAA rechargeable batteries with a charger, and the USB cable for attaching it to the computer. Now, here is what you have to do to win.
1.) Go here and click on the donate button at the bottom of the page. You'll get one entry for every dollar you donate. 5 dollars get you 5 entries. 100 dollars get you 100 entries. You get the picture. The more you give, the better your chance of winning.
2.) After you donate, post a link back to this post on your blog, facebook status, or twitter (on twitter you must go @mwilliford). Don't forget to come here and post a link back to your blog or twitter page. Each one will get you another entry into the contest for every 1 entry from step 1. So, donate 100 bucks and update twitter will= 200 entries. How sweet is that! Good luck.
This contest will run from now until february 20. The next one will be february 21-March 21, and the last one will be March 22-April 24. Keep up because the next prizes will be better, I promise you.

Wow! That's a great incentive! I'm so glad you are doing this, b/c I have a 1 year old son with Cystic Fibrosis. I know what a horrible disease it can be and I desprately want them to find a cure in his life time. Doing Great Strides Walks is how we can get to that cure found. So, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!! If you would like to check out the blog I have about my son, go to:

Again, thank you so much for helping find a cure for Cystic Fibrosis,
M
PS. I look forward to your updates:)
