GOOD SAMARITAN
We need people to help at University Good
Samaritan’s HD unit. A couple of hours of your time would make a world
of difference to a resident of the HD unit, the difference between being
able to go to the zoo or fishing or being left behind. Please call the
University Good Samaritan at 612 332-4262 extension 229 and Volunteer.
BOARD MEMBERS
The Board of Directors for the Minnesota Chapter currently has an open
position to fill. They meet every other month and plan all of the things
the chapter does. If you are interested in helping this way,
email
Jill Sinclair.
FUNDRAISING COMMITTEES
Each year we do several fundraisers, including the Celebration of Hope
dinner, ADE for HD, the Hoop-a-thon, and auctions. If you would like to
help with any of these please email
Leigh
Peterson. Also we
are always interested in ideas for new fundraisers.
SUPPORT GROUPS
We are always looking for new areas to have
support groups in. If you have suggestions or would like to help with
current support groups call Jessica Hancock, the
Chapter Social Worker at 612-371-0904 or
1-877-371-0904.
AUCTION ITEMS
We are often looking for items to be auctioned at the ADE for HD event. If you have items to donate or would like to
contact people to get donations, please
email
Joe Fahey.
RESEARCH AT HCMC
PREDICT and PHAROS studies are currently taking people to help with their
research. PHAROS is for people at risk who have not been tested. PREDICT
is for people who have been tested positive. To volunteer for either
of these studies, contact Dawn Radke at 612-873-2943.
