America’s Greatest Heart Run & Walk 2012
Did you know that cardiovascular disease is the No. 1 killer of all Americans? In fact, someone dies from CVD every 38 seconds! Heart disease also kills more women than all forms of cancer combined. And congenital cardiovascular defects are the most common cause of infant death from birth defects.
You can help. When you join a heart walk, you join more than a million people in 300+ cities across America in taking a stand against heart disease and helping save lives!

The Cure Baseball
The Cure Baseball’s goal is to raise cancer awareness through the game of baseball. Our organization is truly unique in taking two things, cancer and baseball, that so many people can relate to but wouldn’t necessarily tie together and creating a team that everyone can cheer for.
The Cure Baseball is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing financial, emotional and moral support to people and families affected by cancer through a traveling summer collegiate baseball team, support group programs, a scholarship fund and donations to prestigious cancer research groups. A summer collegiate baseball team will travel the United States, playing other summer collegiate teams, and have every game act as a cancer fundraiser. The players on the team will be active college baseball players focused on progressing both their athletic skill set as well as their life skills.
The Montgomery Experience
Our mission is to enhance the quality of life of children, adults, and their families who are affected by severe medical conditions such as Cancer. The Montgomery Experience Incorporated aims to empower these individuals and students through effective action and leadership of trained volunteers. We encourage youth to become civic minded contributing adults. We are committed to enhancing emotional, social, and spiritual health through volunteerism, social interaction, and life skills education.
In 2012, The Montgomery Experience will launch its first annual tree purchasing fundraiser. In conjunction with local law enforcement, emergency medical services (EMS), and correction officers, people may purchase trees in honor of someone. After purchasing the tree(s), people may plant the tree at a location of their choosing, or have a police officer, EMS provider, or corrections officer plant the tree with a child at the camp location.
