It doesn't get easier than an email!

For the past two months we have been posting lots of ideas - most of which were pretty silly! Of course that is our motto with Dress Up 2 Cure: "Get Silly, Spread Hope, Cure Rett Syndrome!"
I can't believe that April is actually coming to a close today - where did the time go?

I am sure some of you have been planning all month to get involved and just have not found the time. I am hear to tell you that it is NOT TOO LATE! We have one FINAL idea for you and it is the easiest one yet. (ok - I admit there is nothing silly about this one though!)

All you need to do is personalize this email and send it out to EVERYONE you know!

SAMPLE EMAIL:

As many of you know, our daughter (insert daughter's name) was diagnosed with Rett Syndrome nearly (insert years since diagnosis of Rett) years ago. Since then, some of you have joined us in the fight to educate people about Rett Syndrome and we thank you. We are asking for your help again. And this time, we are asking EVERYONE!

We will keep this short and sweet. We are fundraising so Girl Power 2 Cure can continue to support the ongoing research that will cure Rett Syndrome. If you can donate $5/$15/$25 dollars in honor of (daughters name) that would be amazing! Working with this organization has been such a positive experience for our entire family and it's helped us deal with the diagnosis, so we hope you can help continue their good work!

Please support our team for the 2011 Dress Up 2 Cure Campaign:

We are incredibly grateful for your support and hope we can count on you as we continue our fight against Rett Syndrome!

Sincerely,
(your name)
