I'm diabetic as was my father. He died three years ago due to complications of diabetes.

This year's Walk for Diabetes in Austin happens to fall on the 3 year anniversary of my father's death and I was thinking about doing the walk to help raise funds for the ADA as a way to honor/remember my dad.

So here is where OOT comes into all of this. If I decided to do the walk and posted a link to the ADA donation site, do you think I'd get any sponsors from the OOT crowd or is this a stupid idea?

If you get your link up fast, you will get a lot of support.

If 20 people post Team in Training / Leukemia Lymphoma / Cancer Society / Red Cross / etc. pledge things before you, though, you'll get very little support.

It's a shame they wont take neteller. Its actually the hassle that will stop most people, not the money. But GFI, you will def. get some support.

I think you should do the walk man, regardless of what this forum does.
