Union, Sparta, MI9amRegistration at 8amFaith's Walk is run by Faith's Angels Inc. a local West Michigan non-profit organization.  Faith’s Walk was created as a way to generate awareness for heart defects while also generating much needed funds for research.  Eighty percent (over double that of national organizations) of the proceeds from Faith’s Walk go directly to research. We are currently looking for walkers or teams to walk.  We ask that each walker try to raise a min. of $100.  Email us at monica@faithsangels.org to get signed up and receive your donation forms and start collecting today! Why should you care about heart defects? Did you know that heart defects occur in 1 in every 115-150 births?  This year approx. 40,000 babies will be born with heart defects and 4,000 won’t live to see their first birthday. If you would just walk one mile for each life lost just in the United States this year to a congential heart defect, you would walk the globe nearly 4 times!  That’s 91,000 lives! There are no major organizations that raise funds for heart defect research.  Of every dollar the government spends on medical funding only a fraction of a penny is directed toward congenital heart defect research.  With so many heart babies struggling, something needs to be done. We are also are looking for sponsors for the walk.  If you, your company or someone you know would be interested in sponsoring Faith's Walk please contact us at monica@faithsangels.org.  Names or logos of sponsors donating over $100 will be added to the backside of our walk t-shirts (if money is received by April 15, 2010). http://www.spartachamber.com/helioscalendar/events/index.php?com=detail&eID=589 Sat, 01 May 2010 00:00:00 -0700 http://www.spartachamber.com/helioscalendar/events/index.php?com=detail&eID=590 All you can eat Pancake Breakfast for heart researchSaturday May 1, 2010 8am-10:30amSparta Civic Center, 75 N.
