How I did it
It made me
I made a difference! 
How I did it: I walked last year with four other people, but I started my fundraising very close to the date of the walk. This year, I determined that I was going to put some actual effort into raising money and spreading awareness. It took some time and willingness to step out of my comfort zone and ask people to donate money, but it was completely worth it. I definitely want to do this again next year, and hopefully raise even more … Read how I did it…
