Hello Ms. Harris
My name is Michael Deiner. I am the President of
the Greater Lebanon Valley Lion's Club in Lebanon
PA. I found your name on the Transverse Myelitis
Support Group of Pennsylvania web site. I need
help getting the word out about a special event
and speaker in our area. Dr. Douglas Kerr is
coming to Myerstown PA to speak on Stem Cell
Research. We are in the beginning stages of
building a website and promotional materials to
sponsor this information. Presently the website
can be found here:
<http://www.lebanoncolions.org/LionsSpeakers/Index.html>www.lebanoncolions.org/LionsSpeakers/Index.html
We expect to have save the date postcards sent out after the new year.
Any help you could offer would be appreciated.
This event is expected to bring interested
parties from all over the country. The majority
of the proceeds will go directly to Dr. Kerr's
research. More information on the speaker and
event can be found below. Thank you in advance for your help.

Dr. Douglas Kerr of Johns <?xml:namespace prefix

"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags"
/>Hopkins Hospital and University, Baltimore MD,
is making some incredible strides in stem cell
research. He is also considered one of the
premier physicians on the leading edge of this
technology. Dr. Kerr agreed to join the mission
of The Greater Lebanon Valley Lions Club to help
understand and educate not only researchers and
other scientist in the field but to help clear
though many of the misconceptions to what Stem
Cell research is all about for the general public. (Learn the Facts)
In todays world of technology and scientific
advances, we are only steps away from being able
to regenerate damaged nerves in the body. Nerves
control every part of the body and they affect
all of our senses and actions. Diseases that
cause nerve damage like Multiple Sclerosis and
Transverse Myelitis affects Millions of people in
the US and possibly some one you know.
Dr. Kerr has been featured on multiple news media
venues including: ABC News, CNN, NPR, CBS Early
Show, and Associated Press. His ground breaking
research has been the subject of discussion and lectures all over the world.
However, research in this field is very costly,
and if we do not generate the funds needed, the
research may not get completed in time to help the ones we love.
Your presence to support this event could really
help define the mission of Dr. Kerr's research as
well as the objectives of The Greater Lebanon Valley Lion's Club.
