Dear Friend,
My name is Ronald Gooden and I’m starting a drag race team to travel around the country to help raise awareness and donations for Multiple Sclerosis and Racers with disabilities. We want to raise awareness to the research of this. I am in search of some contributions of time and labor and maybe some materials/parts. This is all for a good cause. I am also looking for some sponsors or investors to help with this venue.
Now let me tell you how this all came about.
I’ve tried to get others interested in this venue without any luck. See No one is willing to take a chance on this and on me. Most people don’t even know what multiple sclerosis really is or what effect it has on people who have it. I don’t want people to feel sorry for me, but I just need help and donations are a part of that help.
You might be saying and thinking, Yeah right; this is just some guy trying to get something for nothing. But that’s not how it is, I’m just someone who is willing to do anything it takes to make people aware of multiple sclerosis and help find a cure and help racers with disabilities. But I’m just one man.... Trying to make a difference.
Although all of us diagnosed with multiple sclerosis experience different things, one thing is the same, we all have to deal with symptoms, but we have to try and overcome them to make life better. Life offers us a lot of great things and it has its downfalls and also great joy.
When I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2000, I was floored. I thought “ How could this happen to me” and “ What am I going to do now”. Well, after a lot of self-pity and a lot of heartache I had a dream one night. I decided that multiple sclerosis was not going to keep me from doing the things I saw in that dream and the things I wanted to do.
The dream I had, well, I saw myself with a drag team. I had a drag truck, and on the side of that truck was the logo of Racers Against Multiple Sclerosis. RAMS. My family and I were going from track to track telling people about multiple sclerosis and raising awareness and donations. I want to let people know that it doesn't have to keep us down. This team is about helping people not only to overcome life’s trials but also to help them see that “Yes we can do it”. I want people to see that multiple sclerosis and other disabilities doesn’t mean we can’t fully function and make our dreams come true I want people to see living proof of this. It won’t be easy, but I’m just one man wanting to make a difference and see people all over the world support the fight against multiple sclerosis and other disabilities. Help Racers Against Multiple Sclerosis. Help by donating as much as you can, Send to Racers Against Multiple Sclerosis at the address above. Thank you.
PLEASE HELP ME MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
I JUST WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN SOMEONE’S LIFE!
