Raising awareness and money for research to find
a cure for Cerebral Palsy (CP) is urgent. Because there are an
estimated 2.0 million people struggling with CP, almost all of
us have a friend or a loved one with the affliction. Although
other nonprofit organizations claim that Cerebral Palsy is
incurable, we respectfully disagree. The cure for Cerebral
Palsy exists; it just hasn't been found yet. We believe the
cure will be discovered through new technologies.
Adele Schneidereit,
co-founder and CEO of the Inspire the World Foundation is a
woman with Cerebral Palsy, a birth defect that causes
paralysis of one or more limbs, will fly around the world in a
small aircraft to spotlight global awareness in finding a cure
for the crippling disorder. The target date for the voyage is
June 2009.
Ms. Schneidereit,
currently a private pilot, will video-chronicle the trials,
tribulations, and successes of a person with Cerebral Palsy
preparing for her first flight, the rigors of a flight
physical, successive learning flights, ground school, testing,
and finally a flight around the world . The professional
quality video will be made into a documentary.
We need your voice
in raising attention and funding to find a cure for Cerebral
Palsy.
