A Note From a Hendrick Honda of Charleston Family Member

Dear Family and Friends,
It's that time of year again...Baseball Season! I am passionately dedicated to The Charleston Miracle League to help provide the wonderful game of baseball to the most challenged children and adults in our community. So much so, that I am now a member of its Board of Directors. What you may not know is that this league survives strictly on the generous support of donors, without ever charging a fee to the players' families. This is a much more expensive endeavor than a regular baseball league. Our field cost upwards of $250,000. to build to accommodate wheelchairs and walkers. And our facilities cost almost just as much, as our bathrooms are equipped with specialty equipment for the needs of our players. Since 2005 when I first joined as a volunteer, my life has been deeply enriched by all the wonderful people who comprise this amazing organization. Words cannot express the magical experience known as the Charleston Miracle League. One can only feel it -Magnificent...exhilarating...triumphant...jubilation...being a part of a team...fitting in...succeeding...shining like a star! These are feelings that the most challenged of our community rarely get to experience, but on 16 Saturdays a year, on a very special baseball field in West Ashley, the magic comes alive and they are all superstars. I feel very privileged to be a part of that. It is in this vane that I am humbly asking for your support as I endeavor once gain to help raise money for this wonderful cause. I will be participating in the Cooper River Bridge Run/Walk (highlight walk for me!), which is a 10k race held here in Charleston every year. People come from all over the world to compete in this race. This year I've put together a team to walk or run with me so we can maximize our fundraising efforts. If you would like to support our efforts, or just see what we're all about, just click on this link: www.firstgiving.com/hsmiraclemakers. This website is safe and secure, and you will receive a receipt of your tax-deductible contribution.
Thank you so much!!
Love and Big Hugs
