... and Rachel is SO excited to be doing the Walk to Cure Diabetes with Jackson!! We were all together for the 1st walk Jack's Pack was part of in 2005 and in 2006 we - the vanderkooi's - walked in Denver without the Allreds who had moved to California. Rachel wore a shirt that said "I am walking in Honour of my Best Friend Jack". Last year the Allreds formed the California chapter of Jack's pack and we formed the Texas Jack's pack.
BUT this year we are heading to Fresno to walk with the Allreds. Jackson called Jason daily until Jason agree that we could all go. Rachel said to me in the car the other morning "Mom do you know why we walk in the diabetes walk? It is so that we can raise money to get the diabetes out of Jackson. That's why it is called the diabetes walk." I love that she is learning to be aware of fund raising for her best friend at such an early age. Her Change for Jackson jar is full and ready to go to California. Won't you join Rachel in helping our team reach our fund-raising goal ...
Here is a link to Jackson's donation page and a link for Rachel's. Does not matter who you donate to - all money is going to help cure Diabetes!!!
