Geek Force Utterz #016 - Grammie Sue’s Heart Walk

by E. Christopher Clark | Tuesday, September 30, 2008

There are a lot of unhappy and unpleasant things going on in the world right now, so I’d like to take a moment today to celebrate something good and awesome in the world. This weekend, my mom (better known to some on the Internet, particularly the folks at Viddler, as Grammie Sue) is participating in the 2008 Start! Heart Walk in Lowell, Massachusetts. The event is a fundraiser for the American Heart Association, and Mom has set a very reachable and reasonable fundraising goal of $200. In today’s episode of Geek Force Utterz, I speak for a few minutes on why I think you should donate to help the cause.

If you’d like to donate $25 or more, you can donate directly through the Heart Walk site. But if you’d like to make a more modest donation (and who could blame you, given the state of our economy?), you can donate through the Donate link on GeekForceFive.com and I will forward all proceeds directly to Mom’s fund.

Every little bit helps, and almost all of us know someone who has been touched by heart disease. Please consider making a donation. Thank you!
