Thank You St. Louis!



Thank You St. Louis!

October 2014 OMS Walk

We're so fortunate to have friends and family support us from all over the country. This year, our community in St. Louis came together to do a walk to raise money for our Pablove OMS fund.  Our community has been supportive for many years now and this year was no exception.

Despite a cold, rainy fall morning, we had a tremendous turnout of about 65 people ready to brave the rain and support our cause.  And for those that showed up, it ended up being a great morning with the rain stopping and spirits lifted!

The event began with a short introduction with my Mom followed by Nandini Aunti and Leena's short talk about parents with a child in a similar condition.  Many of my childhood friends, including Rishi, Sneha and Leena and their families came out to raise awareness and of course Venugopal Uncle chronicled the event.  And several others also helped prepare brunch for everyone and thanks to everyone's generosity, we believe we've brought in over $4000 through this walk!

We can't thank you enough St. Louis, your kindness, generosity and ongoing support through the years for our family has been tremendous.  Thank you!
