Dear Supporters of Eddie's Fund,
On behalf of Eddie and his mom, we want to THANK all of you who came out for our Fuddrucker's event last week!
We believe we raised over $700 in one evening (final numbers are still pending from Fuddruckers)! Thank you for such a show of support!
Most importantly, the evening marked the first time Eddie has ever been able to appear at one of his own fundraisers. We were THRILLED to see him out of the house and hospital, and could tell that he was deeply excited about the many of you who came out to show your love and support for his recovery process.
On behalf of Eddie's Fund, we thank you for your kindness to an amazing family.
The Winchell family

coming to a Fuddruckers near you...
...the Winchell family and a night out for Eddie's Fund!
Join us at the Reading Fuddruckers on Thursday, June 23rd, from 5- 8 p.m.
If you bring this flyer (just click on the link and print it out), the restaurant will donate 20% of your meal to the Fund!
And...we'll be raffling off 2 Red Sox tickets to an August game (date TBD), including a pre-game on-field batting practice tour!!! You're not going to want to miss a chance to win the Red Sox experience, to eat a great burger, and to see the Winchells (let's be honest...we know Moriah is the main attraction). ALL this...and a chance to love on our buddy Eddie! What could be better?!
See you on the 23rd!

a new way to support Eddie's Fund
Dear Friends,
Thank you for your continued thoughts and prayers for Eddie! He has struggled this winter with a host of medical issues; in fact, he is scheduled for ocular surgery this week.
Your support for Eddie's Fund continues to strengthen Eddie and his mom, who are both very weary from a long winter full of hospital visits. Our family is working on a few fundraisers for Eddie's Fund this month, including some school-based fundraising and a restaurant night (stay tuned for details).
In the meantime, we've discovered a wonderful way to continue our fundraising efforts--by selling fair trade coffee! Please visit our "coffee store" (using the link on the right). For every bag of coffee you purchase, you'll be supporting a coffee farmer, a wonderful organization that's helping adoptive families (Just Love Coffee Roasters), AND Edddie's Fund. In fact, Eddie's Fund will receive $5 of every bag you purchase.
We're hoping for 40 families who will commit to Just Love's "Coffee Club." You'll receive 2 bags of coffee every month without having to re-order each time, resulting in a $10/month donation to Eddie's Fund (and 2 yummy fair trade coffees for your home). Consider becoming one of our 40 Coffee Club supporters.
Whether you purchase coffee just this once or each month, thank you again for your continued love for our buddy Eddie. Our family continues to be so grateful for the kindness you express to a boy you have not met. Eddie's life--in all its struggle--has certainly touched so many.
With thanks from Eddie's family and ours,
Melissa
