It’s about time for one of those updates on how Jump for Diabetes planning is coming along.
I’ve got one word: Incredible!
We have more than 15 skydiving manufacturers who have donated and/or are going to be in attendance. This is much more than we ever expected – and it makes for a pretty great raffle drawing as well.
Should be a great event.
One of the thing I’m doing to help raise money for diabetes research is participating in pledge jumps. From now until the event I’ll be collecting pledges for the jumps I make that weekend from those who also want to support the cause.
Donors can pledge anywhere from $1/jump on up and no money will be collected until after the event – after all, it’s per jump, and I haven’t made those yet 
.
My goal is to make 10 jumps each day, for two days of the event. This is going to be quite the challenge, but I think I’m up to it! After all, it’s for a good cause, right?!
So who out there wants to pledge me to make these skydives? C’mon, you know you do! Help a chick (and the diabetes community she supports) out. It’ll push me to reach my goal and it’s something you can feel good about!
Email me if you’d like to be a part of my pledge team! (theskydivechick@gmail.com)
Also, be sure to check out the web site to enter the PD canopy raffle, submit donations and pre-register for the event. Skydivers who pre-register for $30 will be guaranteed a goodie bag including t-shirt, raffle ticket and other skydiving goodies.
How do you plan to take part in the event and support this great cause, even if you can’t physically be there?
Blue skies!
