Day 99

It has been a great day of giving! We started the morning with the MS walk at Piedmont Park.

The walk is the rallying point of the MS movement, a community coming together to raise funds and celebrate hope for the future. All money raised helps drive critical research for a cure and services that address the challenges of everyone affected by MS.
Dona started her good deeds with wake up calls for everyone at 630am! We then all (well... almost all) met at the Park at 9:30 to get started with the walk. There were so many people out to support the movement - it was amazing!

It's funny that we all rallied together to support Fay Gibson, Raksha's Friend. And our little rockstar, Raksha was nowhere to be found at 9am! RAKSHA GOT LOST AND CLAIMS SHE WALKED 20K!! We believe that once she was confident that everyone was going to be there, and everything was in order, she went and got breakfast!

So many of our friends came out to walk with us so Raksha, Dona and I would like to say THANK YOU: Kelsi, Onyx (and Meredith), LeBlanc, Vern, Vikas, Lubna, Dyuti, Nehal, Samir, Shumaila, Maliha, and Jessica!!! You guys made this event phenomenal. We appreciate you guys giving up your Saturday morning to walk with us!

Day 100 is tomorrow and we couldn't have asked for a better Day 99 to kick off the celebration.
We're enjoying the rest of the day with our favorites and then heading out to Sutra Lounge in Midtown to continue celebrating this milestone! Everyone's welcome :)
Tomorrow we celebrate our 100th day with SHO. High Road Craft Ice Cream & Sorbet was able to donate ice cream for tomorrow, so we're all set to serve.

You're welcome to join us there as well!

~ Dona & Chandni
