In Loving Memory of Nathan James-AVM Fundraiser
Dear Family & Friends,
We are walking to raise awareness about brain aneurysm and arteriovenous malformation (AVM) on May 3rd,2009.
It is estimated that 3-5 million people in the United States alone have a brain aneurysm, and
200-500 have a brain AVM.
I am writing to ask for your help in meeting my personal fundraising goal of $1,000.
Your contribution will go to supporting the work of The Aneurysm and AVM Foundation (TAAF).
TAAF is an all-volunteer 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to bettering the lives, support
networks, and medical care of those affected by brain aneurysm and AVM.
An aneurysm is a weak area in a blood vessel that enlarges like a balloon. As it grows, the
blood vessel becomes weaker and is at risk for leaking or rupturing, which can cause death,
brain damage or lifelong disability.
An AVM is a tangle of blood vessels in the brain that bypasses normal brain tissue capillaries
and directly diverts blood from the arteries to the veins resulting in devastating hemorrhages,
headaches, and seizures.
Very often brain aneurysms and AVMs are “silent” and go undetected until it is too late.
Today I am asking you for your support in raising public awareness, and supporting research
grants to better the detection, treatment, and eventually a cure for brain aneurysms and AVMs.
You will receive email confirmation of your donation and I will be notified as soon as you make your donation. I thank you in advance for your support, and really appreciate your generosity!!
