Action

NOW

October 28, 2011


Dear Friend,

Today is the day for you to take action for Rett syndrome. Give a gift to The International Rett Syndrome Foundation to support our fight for a cure.

Our community has given over $5,000 directly through the IRSF website in October. This total does not include events, Strollathons, Phantom Tea, or call-in donations. Give a tribute today and wear lavender this weekend to show your support.

Don’t wait, there isn’t much time left to give a gift in October for Rett Syndrome Awareness Month.

October is National Rett Syndrome Awareness Month. Every 2 hours a girl is born with Rett syndrome, and you know one. Rett syndrome has an immeasurable impact on our children, our families and our community. It is the leading cause of severe impairment in girls yet the general public still doesn’t know about it. Let’s change this. We need the world to embrace our children and help us turn Research to Reality for the thousands diagnosed with Rett syndrome.

Thank you,

Stephen Bajardi
Executive Director
