A Message from ARDS Foundation President
Almost every day, I hear from people asking these question: “How come no one has heard of ARDS?” “Why does ARDS not receive the same attention as breast cancer or AIDS when it takes more lives?” “What can I do to help this cause?”

There is always something that a person with passion can do for a cause that they believe in. People can join other like minded folks, as those joined together garnish more attention than someone standing alone.

Again, the ARDS Foundation is hosting another benefit and it is our hope that those in the ARDS Community, especially those who reside in Illinois or nearby, will strongly consider attending the “March for Miracles” Benefit on Saturday, August 14, 2004, beginning at 8:00 AM.

I am certain that there are many of you who have seen on the news, stories about this walk or that, and not only notice the media attention the organizations receive, but also, the many people who are in attendance. Those who attend are dedicated, make a conscious decision and find others to join them in their passion for their cause.

It is easy to talk about your cause, but to go out and do something … this is the challenge. And this is my challenge to you. If you have been touched by ARDS, again I will say that now is the time to do something. Make the commitment. We all know that talk is often just talk, and it requires a higher level of dedication to do something.

The Foundation events are about one thing… YOU. But without the ARDS Community present at these events, it makes much less sense. Anyone can write a check, call it in, so to speak. Help our voice grow. Talk to family and friends of your passion and desire to see change in your own lifetime and perhaps they, too, will accompany you to this important event.

Are you up for this challenge?
