We take a lot for granted here in the US. You cut your finger, no problem… It’s off to the emergency room and get a few stitches. Nagging cough, call up the family doctor and find what ails you. Not so in many other countries. Sure, we have more than a few kinks in our Health Care system… But, we do have a stem.

Imagine if you were ill and there were no doctors, no medicine to help combat a tiny bug waging war on your immune system. Imagine you are a small child presented with this challenge. That’s what breaks my heart. Their life is just beginning. You know, when we are born, we have unlimited potential and unbelievable drive. A baby doesn’t know the meaning of can’t. Think about when a baby first starts to walk. Think about that drive and tenacity. How many times do they fall only to get right back up? Over and over and over again.

We all know there is a serious problem in Kenya and other parts of the world for that matter. Most of us probably don’t help because we find it too overwhelming. “What can I do to help?” Well, luckily we have folks like a good friend of mine, Scott Campbell with www.nwpersonaltraining.com. Scott has taken it upon himself to give something we all have, take for granted and is the most precious… TIME.

Scott is heading up a mission to Kenya in April of 2008.to bring faith, hope, joy, supplies and service to AIDS stricken villages in East Africa. Please help support this important project to serve Kenyan families and children afflicted by AIDS. In villages devastated by AIDS, it is the children who suffer most. 100% of donation go towards charity.

To help raise monies for this worthy cause, Scott is going to try and break the World Record on a Stepmill. the old record is 106,377 steps in 24 hours! It’s held by Jim Campbell (no relation) a firefighter in Indianapolis.

He will be attempting this feat on March 21st at 7 p.m. You can download this flyer on the location and get more details on how you can help, donate and participate. Download stepmill_world_record_flyer.pdf

If you do decide to participate, make sure you thank Scott for heading up this project. I know that I am truly thankful for people like Scott. Like I said before, time is our most precious asset and he has decided to share some if his for a most worthy cause.

All the best to you Scott,

Michael J Eiden
