Hello friends.
My legs still shake and my eyes almost cry when I remember my first find,
luckily caught on video ( http://youtu.be/a2CYQndarXM ).
That's why I invite you to donate to Marissa as I did, to share this
beautiful moment and also to thank people who helped us to reach our dreams.
Thanks José Vicente Casado !
Thanks Dr.Jordi Llorca !

Salutations, listoids.
If you have ever looked for a meteorite, let alone have been lucky
enough to have found one, then you know what an amazing and
exhilarating experience it can be. You have to power to help share
that experience with someone who will make history as the first person
to look for meteorites in a wheelchair (at least we're fairly certain,
if there's another out there please speak up).
Help make Marissa's dream a reality, please help by spreading the word
and donating today.
A sincerest thank you,
Michael in so. Cal.

Hello again, List.
I am happy to report that we are just over 1/3 of the way through the
crowd source funding campaign to get Marissa out on her very first
meteorite hunt, and funding is keeping pace with 34% of the projected
funds already raised. That is fantastic, Marissa is so grateful for
all of the support she has received thus far. But we're not there
yet!
If you have already donated, thank you! If you have been wanting to
donate but are holding off, now is the time to jump. New perks have
just been added, don't miss out!
Whether you are able to donate $1 or $100, every bit helps get Marissa
into the field. Please continue to spread the word and help raise
awareness of the campaign, and of course, if you are able, continue to
donate. This is bound to be a wonderful experience for a deserving
young woman. To donate, please visit
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/marissa-s-meteorite#home and click
CONTRIBUTE NOW.
Thank you again for your continued support,
Michael in so. Cal.

Hello, List.
I am very pleased to share with you all the story of a young woman's
quest
to realize a long-time dream: finding her first meteorite. What makes
her
story any different than that of countless other meteorite hunters to-be?
Rather than try to explain it myself I will let Marissa speak for
herself.
"I have a genetic disease called Spinal Muscular Atrophy type 2. The
signal
that travels down the spine and to the muscles telling them to move is
gone
and doesn't work. The only reason I have some function is due to a short
back-up signal but it is short-lived and fades away. I have never walked
on
my own and when I was 4, I was in a wheelchair,
permanently... ...I do not tell you this to make you feel bad or sorry
for
me. I'm not sorry. I'm very lucky. I love life and just want to enjoy it
as
much as possible. This disease made me who I am and helped me see how
precious life is and I'm very thankful for that... ...I would love for
this
to be my first meteorite hunt but it may be my only hunt and I'd cherish
every minute of the hunt."
Several very generous members of our meteorite community have banded
together help Marissa complete this quest, but they cannot do it alone.

Thank very much for your help, together we can make this dream come true!
