Hi there, my name is Shane Burcaw. I’m the guy who looks like a cross between a robot giraffe and a pterodactyl above.

I need your help. I was born with an incurable disease called spinal muscular atrophy, but I’ve had the amazing fortune of always having the medical and adaptive equipment that I needed. Unfortunately, there are thousands and thousands of people living with diseases just like mine who can’t say the same.  I want to use my time on this earth to change that. 

My nonprofit organization has recently launched a new initiative to help families affected by muscular dystrophy. 

We give to you our newest initiative: No More Nightmares. This program will strive to supply families and individuals affected by muscular dystrophy diseases with:

  • wheelchair accessible vehicles
  • ramps to make their houses accessible
  • and other adaptive technology to help them live healthy, productive, and comfortable lives.

We have set a $5000 fundraising total to be achieved by this Tuesday. This will give us a great boost as we begin helping the families who apply for grants.

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, you’ll know that making a positive impact on the world is my biggest concern (besides trying to make you laugh so hard you throw up vital body organs). 
Here is the link to donate: http://igg.me/p/1019795/x/9161855

So much love and support! I can’t thank all of you enough! I truly believe we can reach this goal by Tuesday.
