Scotty Sacks

Scott's dream was to give comfort to children going through brain cancer treatment. With the help of our friends, volunteers and myself, we have given life to Scott's dream. We needed a kid friendly logo, Scott loved and raised many squirrels. A well known artist donated his time, he incorporated Scott's features and created a kid friendly squirrel. We then started working with a toy company and Scotty Squirrel was born April 2011. Scotty Squirrel is a brave squirrel he brings along comfort items and things that helps pass the time while going through treatments.

There Is Still Time

Miles For Hope is Moving Towards A Cure and we are walking and raising funds in "Steps For Scott" I will be mailing out flyers this week to those that have expressed interested in walking with our team "Steps For Scott" for Miles of Hope. Make it a family event, the more the merrier. It's easy to register or donate online: www.BrainTumorEvents.org/Orlando2012. You can find our team "Steps for Scott" #1, thanks to generous donators - YAY!(squealing with excitement) I encourage you to make signs in memory of Scott or those who are fighting this disease or have lost their fight. It is a great way to remind you and all of us why we are walking. Make it a family event, the more the merrier. Don't want to leave your pet at home, they are also welcome to walk. Strollers, wagons etc. can also be decorated. Did you know that Brain Tumors are the leading cause of solid tumor cancer death in children under the age of 20, now surpassing acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). They are the second leading cause of cancer death in male adults age 20-29 and the fifth leading cause of cancer death in female adults age 20-39. Please keep in mind Miles For Hope is separate from Scotty Sacks. Our team, "Steps for Scott" is just as excited to help raise money towards a cure and helping travel assistance to patience.
