Friends,
family, and colleagues, as most of you know, I
have been involved in MDA's Wings
Over Wall Street since its founding by my late
sister-in-law, Toni Diamond, and my brother,
Warren Schiffer in 2001. This year marks our 12th
year of Wings and we have raised nearly
$10 million for ALS research.
Please
join me, Warren, and hundreds of others for Wings
2012, on Thursday, September 27,
2012, at Gotham Hall (36th and Broadway) in NYC
from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. to honor the
memory of those who have lost their fight against
ALS and support those who continue to
struggle against ALS. Tickets
for the Wings Gala are $300 each. Contact the MDA
for details.

If
you can't join us on September 27th, there are
many ways you can help by making a monetary
donation of any amount to Wings or become a
Wings
Sponsor, by donating an auction item,
by purchasing a journal ad, by purchasing raffle
tickets for a trip for two on
Quantas to Australia, by asking your company or
someone you know to become a Wings
Sponsor, and by spreading the word about Wings to
your contacts. All the information you
need is on our website.
Funding
for ALS research is critical now that the
scientists are making progress and getting closer
to treatments and a cure. Please help us fulfill
Toni's vision of funding a cure for ALS. We need
your monetary donations (sponsorships and raffle
ticket purchases) and auction donations (sports
tickets, access to events, meet and greet with
celebrities; jewelry, etc.) today.
For
raffle tickets, you can use the form attached and
linked or you can e-mail me and send me
your check made out to MDA-Wings. Raffle tickets
are 6 for $100 or $25 each ticket. You can

With
your help, together, we will find a cure for ALS.To

No contribution is too
small. Auction donations are needed
and welcomed. You can sponsor a
minute of research for $100. Tickets to
the 10th Anniversary gala are $300.
Contact the MDA
for tickets.
We hope that you, your colleagues
and friends, and your organization can join the
Wings family
on our 10th Anniversary and help us find a cure
for ALS so that families no longer have to suffer
the trauma of losing a loved-one to such a horrible
fatal disease.
