Push-Ups for Stephanie Project

Several weeks ago we received devastating news.  11 year old Stephanie Bader, the daughter of our close family friends, Ed and Mary Bader, was in the ICU at Children’s Hospital of Pennsylvania (CHOP).  We found out very shortly thereafter that the reason for her hospitalization was a brain tumor.

Surgery was performed.

70% of the tumor was removed and sections were biopsied.  The tumor turned out to be malignant and this shy, beautiful little girl was suddenly diagnosed with Cancer.  The Bader family’s world was turned upside down.  Neighbors, friends, and relatives all pitched in.   The overwhelming outpouring of prayers, gifts, meals, help, sympathy, and support is heartwarming to see.

In order to help alleviate some of the financial pressure on the Bader Family, I would like to propose a project –

Push-Ups for Stephanie

Here’s the deal.  I am asking all of my readers, followers, and supporters to donate any amount of money, starting at just $1, to help out Stephanie and her family.  For each $1 donated, I will do 1 push-up.  Therefore, if we raise $1000, I will do 1000 push-ups.  If we raise $10,000, I will do 10,000 push-ups (no matter how long it takes!!)

A video of the push-ups will be available to certify that each and every one has been accounted for.  If you are local, in the South Jersey area, I invite you to come and take a share of push-ups and join me!

In order to count for the push-up challenge, all donations must be received by October 31, 2013.

Additionally, as a thank you for your donation, I will give each person any one of my Warrior Fitness Programs for free.  Simply email me HERE, let me know which program you want, and I’ll email it out to you.

Please note that 100% of the donations will go directly to the Bader Family.  I ask that you please be generous.

Any amount  is greatly appreciated.  Thank you sincerely from myself, and on behalf of Steph and the Bader Family.

Stephanie’s older sister, Kate Bader, has set up a Facebook Page, Team Steph and a Twitter feed, #PrayforPep.  Please like and follow both to join Steph on her journey to wellness.
