The mayor was invited but was unable to attend.  Below is his note extending his aplogies for not being able to attend.

Good evening,

Thank you for inviting Mayor Coleman to join you for the Central Ohio Chapter of the Polycystic Kidney Disease Foundation walk on September 18, 2011.   

Regrettably, he is unable to attend due to a scheduling conflict.  The Mayor is disappointed that he cannot welcome the walkers and participate in this important effort to benefit those in our community with PKD.

Again, thanks for the invitation.  Best wishes for a safe, successful and enjoyable walk.

Toya J. Johnson, M.Ed.

Fight PKD Head On – Take the 20/20 Vision Challenge

 

As those affected by PKD, our vision of the future is clear – AN END TO PKD! That’s why we’re taking the 20/20 Vision Challenge and asking 20 friends to donate $20 each. Join us—it’s easy and effective.

Do you know 20 people you can ask for $20 each? Of course you do! All you need to do now is reach out and ask them to make an investment towards a future free of PKD. With this simple request alone, you can raise $400 to help find treatments and a cure for PKD.

The impact of our 20/20 Vision can truly change lives! Last year, if all 12,000 Walk participants had taken the 20/20 Vision Challenge and raised $400 each, nearly $5 million could have been raised for PKD research and education.

Make 2011 the year we all join the 20/20 Vision Challenge and exceed our goal of raising $2.5 million to find treatments and a cure for PKD. Join us as we fight PKD and WIN!
