The 19 board members of the Lymphedema Advocacy Group are proud to announce that today marks the halfway point of our Act Now for the LTA Walkathon Fundraiser – 300 miles down and 300 miles to go!
We are so excited about the momentum in the lymphedema community these days! Check out LE&RN spokeswoman Kathy Bates on the television show The Doctors as she talks about her struggle with lymphedema. Awareness is growing and now it’s time to get the LTA across the finish line!
Last year we made tremendous progress by gaining 107 bipartisan cosponsors. This Congress, we are poised to go even further. Your support will enable us to combine forces with professionals in DC and take our grassroots advocacy to a whole new level!
Each of our board members has made a personal donation and pledged to walk a combined total of over 600 miles in two weeks. We ‘hit the road’ back on Valentines day and will cross the finish line on February 28th. If you have already donated, then we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If not, here’s your chance!
Please show your support for the Lymphedema Treatment Act by making a donation and then sharing a link to our fundraiser with your friends, family, and via your social media networks.
If you prefer to donate via check the address is: Lymphedema Advocacy Group, PO Box 1682, Carrboro, NC 27510
