Reading Party - Athena, Goddess of Hope

You Can Help Find the Cure!

You can make a difference in the world - one child at a time. Just take the time to care.

Five-year-old Athena Reitano needs your help! Athena has metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD). It is an extremely rare, progressive genetic defect for which currently there is no cure. Her life expectancy is one year! The time for a cure is now. You can help fund research that may be able to save Athena's life. All you have to do is throw a party...

We celebrate life everyday by throwing a party. Millions of parties across the planet are held everyday to celebrate birth, the life of a child, marriage, coming of age - you name it, we all know how to have a great party. Now, when you throw a party and you purchase your party supplies from www.perfectpartybycody.com/helpsaveathenaslife you can help raise money to find her cure. All it takes is one person to throw a party and then your guest throws a party, and so on and so on and so on until we raise enough money to accelerate treatment and search for a cure for Metachromatic Leukodystrophy.

There are lots of other ways you can help to spread the word:

Send a banner to your family and friends. We provide them free at readingparty.org. Have your family or friends post it on their family web site. Free banners are located on your right.
Print a flyer and distribute in your neighborhood. Beautiful Athena's flyer is located at the upper right top of the page. It is in Adobe PDF format so it prints easily from any printer. Pass them out to your friends and family and forward the flyer to your friends via email.
Make a donation. Any little bit counts and all funds will go directly to fund the research needed for Athena's cure.
Add a signature line to your email. Simply cut and paste the signature line located on your right to help. Add it to all emails you send and spread the word about Athena.

We are all part of a big community that wants to help. We look for the good in life and we strive to make differences. We are part of a new generation that reaches out to everybody in need because we know it affects us all. You want to be important. You want to make a difference. This is how you can do it - today!

Please join Mr. Party Pack, Reading Party, and the many other concerned parents, neighbors, and kids who don't want to miss out on the 100 + years of laughter and love that Athena Reitano can leave on the world.

By celebrating the precious moments in your life, you help the Reitano's give life to their daughter!
