Jumping Into Life – Skydive for MS
After attending a Landmark Education seminar, Christy Fair was inspired to create a community project. Having begun a personal adventure in which she was overcoming her fears, she wanted to continue this trend, while inspiring and helping others.
She researched different options, and when she came upon a way to skydive and raise money for MS, while inspiring a team of people, she knew that she had found her project. She named the team, “Jumping Into Life - Being Fearless in the Face of Certain Uncertainty.”
With the help of her friends, family, and community, Christy put together the Jumping Into Life team of ten. Each person has committed to raising a minimum of $500, although each has a goal of $750. The funds raised will go to the National MS Society. Support Christy.
“This project is inspired by the birth of Lauren Steel,” said Christy, “her father has MS, and despite this challenge, he and his wife have chosen to bring a new life into this world. I can’t think of a more fearless challenge or worthy cause.” Lauren was still in utero when Christy began her planning, and was born on July 2, 2009.
The Jumping Into Life team will jump this Sunday, August 26 in Lake Elsinore.
