Event details
I am writing to you on behalf of the North Texas Gluten Intolerance Group.
Our celiac support group is hosting The Gluten Free Makeover: A Healthier You!
EVENT DATE:
September 19, 2010 from 4 PM until 8 PM.
This wonderful event will be held at the Gaylord Texan Hotel and Conference Center in Grapevine, TX.
The purpose of this event is to promote celiac disease awareness and to raise funds for the Gluten Intolerance Group of N.A.,( www.gluten.net ) the University of Maryland's Center for Celiac Disease Research ( www.celiaccenter.org ) and to support local initiatives through North Texas GIG. Celiac disease affects both children and adults. People with celiac disease are unable to digest gluten, the protein found in wheat, oats, barley and rye. It is the most common genetic disease affecting one out of 133 people, although it often goes undiagnosed for years. For more information you can visit University of Maryland's web site at www.celiaccenter.org/facts.asp .
We need products for our raffle gift baskets and for sampling, coupons, and cash donations. We will bake any products for tasting. Our volunteers and families are grateful for your generous donation.
I thank you for helping us with Celiac Disease research fundraising. Please feel free to contact me for further information: Mary Wood, 817-703-1067 or email hermitgirl77@yahoo.com
We would appreciate knowing if you will donate by May 15.
Sincerely
Mary Wood
