Helpers 4 Haiti

http://www.helpers4haiti.org/

I was on a girl's blog that I follow this morning, and I came across this site. Her little girl was also born with ABS and she is a little older than Maddie. I enjoy following her blog to see all the awesome things she does!

This site was created to help out kids in need who need prosthetics, but can't afford them. If you have old prosthetics laying around, please donate them and give life to another child in need. With your donation, a child could walk for the first time, and just make life a little easier. Whether it is an upper or lower limb, you can help! How cool would that be!

Did any of you see the Extreme Makeover Home Edition Episode with the family who had a couple kids born with ABS? Thislittle girl on the show touched me so much. She didn't have any legs, and only one hand. She was the most fun spirited joyful little girl EVER. She was such an incredible little child with such a giving heart. She did everything, and was even an amazing surfer! Completely fearless and never letting anything hold her back. It was awesome to watch and during the show as she donated her prosthetics to help children in Haiti. She was crying as she saw the little girl she helped walked for the first time ever. That was such a touching moment.

take a look at this video. If I was more computer savy I would be able to have the video right on my blog.
