Fundraising and Giants :)

As most of you know, yesterday was the kick off day for our 'week of fundraising.'  It has been going well so far, but please keep spreading the word, everyone is doing great!  Today we got some news.  One of my mom's coworkers wrote a letter a couple weeks ago to the San Francisco Giants telling them about Timmy.  Timmy was all about the Giants, if the Giants were on, Timmy was watching them, he is still that way.  Well, they wrote back and asked if we would want tickets to a game, or something autographed, so we told them that we would like tickets for the family so that we can take Timmy :)  We found out today that we are getting tickets for the whole family to go, and also something autographed by Tim Lincecum for Timmy!  Lincecum is one of Timmy's favorites, so we are very excited about that!  We get to go to the Sunday, September 19th game.
Also, I contacted the Santa Cruz Sentinel, and they will be doing a story on Timmy and the fundraising, so look for that soon, they should be calling me in the next couple of days.
A couple more things. Caitlin and I are looking for volunteers to join our team.  We need people who will be dedicated in helping us raise this 100k for Timmy's treatment.  If you are interested please email me at friendsoftimmyhatch@hotmail.com   We are looking for sponsors also.  I ordered some bracelets a couple days ago, so look for those in the next couple of weeks, we orders black with white writing, white with black writing, orange with black writing, and red with white writing.  These will be different than the ones we had last year they will be engraved and colorfilled and will say "Friends of Timmy Hatch."  We are also thinking about getting shirts made, so lots of things to look forward to in the coming month :)
I want to thank everyone who has been posting links like crazy, donated, and who have kept Timmy in their thoughts and prayers.  We tell him all the time that he has thousands of people supporting him.  Thank you once again!
