March 2008

Well, our first annual Rylee’s Rally went off without a hitch. Okay, so there was the incident with the elevator breaking down...but the weather was perfect, parking worked out well, and we had a great turn out!
We had fifty-seven vendors and agencies who participated, in addition to nearly 500 people in attendance seeking information and resources.
Over and over we heard from the families, “I wish we’d had this years ago...Everyone is so helpful...I had no idea I could access this much for my child.” Many parents stopped us throughout the day, tears in their eyes, thankful for a day devoted to getting their child the services they deserve and need.
Vendors called weeks after, letting us know how they were still helping families and also networking with other agencies and vendors in the community-providing the best care possible for our families.
We hope you will take a few minutes to look over the newsletter, hear how the day impacted lives, and our plans for next year’s Rylee’s Rally. What an awesome privilege and opportunity to help families in our community. The day reminds us all that we each can make a difference.
These precious children are not defined by a diagnosis...but rather by who they are to those who love them.


Thank you to all our vendors who made this day possible.
