FDRS Wants YOU!
By
“When you do nothing, you feel overwhelmed and powerless. But when you get involved, you feel the sense of hope and accomplishment that comes from knowing you are working to make things better.” (Anon)
FDRS needs your help! We are looking for bright, mentally energetic volunteers who are dedicated to bringing fat disorders awareness and education to our country. Could this be you?
We need interested individuals to become ‘State Representatives’ for FDRS. Your duties would include but not be limited to: organizing local “get togethers” for fat disorders patients, organizing local fund raisers and bringing fresh ideas to accomplish these tasks and keeping your constituents informed of all developments regarding FDRS. All of us know how difficult it is to find a doctor who knows about fat disorders, much less find one who will treat us but with your help we believe we can change this. Plus, holding a get-together is a wonderful way to make new friends who know exactly what you are going through and can become a fantastic system of support. FDRS will provide support and help in any way we can.
If you would like to help us make a difference, please contact FDRS at either susangrimshaw@fatdisorders.org or carolereed@fatdisorders.org.
I am interested in helping with FDRS in Utah, and possibly other states where I have family and friends, (CA, WY, ID, MT, CO). What does it entail? I have had DD for 30 yrs. and I have done a lot of research and had some notable personal successes. I’m retired from nursing and also teaching, run a business and have a large family; tell me more of what kind of time you need and I will make some arrangements and contacts to help out. Hook up with me at Facebook, as well, (Joyce Hare Whitaker) Contact info: (801) 298-9898/home, 97 W. 1950 S., Bountiufl, UT 84010
Best of blessings,
