CALL
TO ACTION: Indications are that Governor Rendell is preparing an "austerity budget" that may not include a cost-of-living adjustment for the fiscal year starting this July. Now is the time to urge him not to forget about the important work organizations like LifePath provide to some of our most vulnerable and underrepresented citizens. PAR makes this easy to do. Please follow the below link and in about 30 seconds, you, too can help urge the governor to support legislation to improve our future funding. Thank you! Go
to: "Walk For A Healthy Community" with LifePath in June LifePath will be participating in its first "Walk for a Healthy Community presented by Highmark Blue Shield" on Saturday, June 14, 2008. LifePath is participating in the walk because it gives our organization the opportunity to raise funds to support our programs. The 5K walk and one-mile fun walk will take place in Historic Downtown Bethlehem. The fourth annual "Walk for a Healthy Community presented by Highmark Blue Shield" will benefit 13 Lehigh Valley health and human service agencies. Since Highmark Blue Shield underwrites the cost of the walk, 100 percent of the money raised by walkers supports the 13 participating organizations, including LifePath. We would like to ask your company to consider becoming a corporate sponsor or forming a team to participate and help raise money for LifePath. While there are no registration fees, participants are asked to get pledges for the participating organization of their choice. More information is available by visiting www.walkforahealthycommunity.org. Ann Marie would love to come out and speak with your employees on ways to become involved or even set up a sign-up day in your business' lobby or cafeteria where interested individuals can register on-site. If you or your company would be willing to put together a team, please e-mail Ann Marie at amsurovy@lifepath.org or call 484-893-5539. Online registration will begin next month. "Walk For A Healthy Community" is just a fun day for participants and their families, coworkers and friends to support their favorite organization while focusing on ways to engage in healthful, active lifestyles. I hope LifePath can count on your support of this important event!Surf and Shop the Net and Earn Money for LifePath What if LifePath earned a penny every time you searched the Internet or shopped online?
