As many who read my blog know, my family participates in Walk now for Autism. Last year was the first year we walked, shortly after our son was diagnosed with PDD-NOS.
Well we’re starting to take donations again. Along with general donations, events, and raffles we have scheduled for this year, I decided to do something special.
Last year I took donations at work, saying that if I raised a certain amount I would wear a Snuggie to work for the day. I raised that amount, and had to suffer wearing the Snuggie.
This year I’ve got something a bit different planned.
Something bigger, and more permanent.
This year, with the help of all of you out there, I’m looking to raise over $1000 under my name. If I hit the $1000 mark, I’ll dye my hair hot pink for a full week.
7 days of hot pink hair.
“Wait, Rob. You don’t HAVE any hair!”
That’s true, but starting today I’m growing my hair out just for this occasion. I’ll also be taking daily mugshots so people can track the growth of my hair, and if it gets dyed, keep me honest for the full 7 days.
I’ll also be doing some other, minor crazy things for other landmarks on the way to $1000, but I haven’t gotten them all figured out yet.
Keep an eye out for a donation meter on this blog soon.
The walk for Greater Hartford takes place on 06/06/2010, so I need to raise the $1000 by then.
Remember, only donations posted directly under my name will count towards this. You can also use the link to sign up for the walk if you’d like to walk with our team, Aiden’s Awesomeness.
Who knows. If I can surpass the $1000, maybe I’ll even dye the beard.
