March Of Dimes Fundraiser

Hello sisters!
This is Valerie Morris, and I am getting arrested!!
Relax, it's only for the March of Dimes' annual Jail & Bail Fundraiser. My husband turned me in for being a busy mom. I guess I am guilty!

Anyways, I am being "arrested" on July 29th at noon, and I have to try and raise my bail before then. They gave me a goal of $1000 which is crazy, but I'd like to at least try to hit it! If you are willing to donate to the cause, you can either go to my March of Dimes Website:

http://jailandbail.marchofdimes.com/redheadedvalval

I can also take cash, check, and credit cards manually. All proceeds go to the March of Dimes!

There is also a group on facebook I've created if you'd like to join!
Help in the fight for preemies and other babies who need our help. This is a cause very dear to my heart, every little bit can help!
