alzheimers news-put a stamp on it

ALZHEIMERS NEWS-PUT A STAMP ON IT
Alzheimer’s semipostal fundraising stamp
this year as you are addressing your christmas cards
pulling out your stamps
to mail all your card
dont use a christmas stamp
instead
do this

get this new alzheimers stamp
and
put it on all your cards

it will be unveiled at a ceremony at john hopkins medcial school
on november 30th

why this stamp

after the overhead for this stamp is paid
all the proceeds
go to the nih the national institute of health
which supports alzheimers research

i know i know
bill gates is donating $150 million for alzheimers research

i know i know
the federal government is allocating more money for
alzheimers research

but
thats all is not enough

we are within the reach
of finding a treatment and or a cure
for this awful terrible disease

it
will take all this funding to do it
find a cure

so
go to the post office and buy the alzheimers stamps
then
lick them
stick them
to your christmas cards

help us find a cure
