August is Spinal Muscular Atrophy awareness month

in honor of my niece, Josephine Lucy, who died at age 5months of SMA type 1, I will be collecting for a cure to this dread genetic disease that is the #1 killer of children under the age of 2.....if you see "The Queen of France" in downtown Salem, please donate to this cause.  I hope to raise $500-I would like to thank the city of Salem Licensing board for their help so that I could get permission to do this....thanks Kate Arment
