Well my culinary arts students did it again. They collected $295.00 in tips and donations right under me. Along with the donations from the Tough Mudder I ran on June 1st we did ok in May with fund raising. Need to do more.
F4U will be at Musser Park in Lancaster on July 4th with a concession stand. Stop by and get lunch or a cool drink.

Well there were problems in Frederick MD on Septembe 9th the day of the Tough Mudder and it was canceled. We had a team of 7 ready to go but were all disapointed. Even though Fighting 4 US received donations anyway so we were somewhat sucessful.
Still working on the web site trying to get it more user freindly so other folks can post.
Sorry this took so long to get on.

Hello fighters! My name is Samie and I am Andrea's younger sister. In the next few months, I am looking to make some changes
to Fighting4Us. One of them being that we are looking for fighters of RSD to volunteer their time to blog on our site. If you
think you are interested in being part of the fight, please feel free to email us. We are not looking for world class writers,
just everyday people fighting with RSD, who would be willing to share some of their stories and battles with other fighters and
supporters.
Sending soft hugs and thoughts for a low pain day.
-Samie Gianopoulos (Andrea's Sister)
PS: Make sure to keep checking back for more changes and updates!
We here at Fighting 4 Us would once again like to thank everyone for the many many applications we recieved for the Fighter of
the Year Award and the Andrea Gianopoulos Memorial Scholarship. All the recipients of the awards have been posted with a little
information on each. It was a very difficult choice for us here at F4U but we are confidant in our decisions and our proud of
each and every one of you that took the time and suffered the pain to apply. Andrea would truly be touched by each of your
stories.
-Nicole Gianopoulos, Andreas sister
