FUN RUNS & WALKS : MICHIGAN

Ann Arbor Shamrocks & Shenanigans 2009
Sunday, March 15

Running Fit and Conor O'Neill's present the Shamrocks & Shenanigans fundraiser for the "Save A Heart" foundation at C.S. Mott Children's Hospital.

Save A Heart is an organization that raises funds to benefit patients and their families who come to the Michigan Congenital Heart Center at C.S. Mott Children's Hospital. Highly experienced cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, intensive care specialists, nurses, social workers, anesthesiologists and radiologists provide comprehensive care for infants, children and young adults with congenital heart disease.

Funds raised by Save A Heart support families with travel, lodging and other expenses. These funds also support clinical research. In a time when more medical costs are being shifted to the patient, one of the goals is to relieve the families' financial burdens during a very stressful period in their lives.
