Dana is an incredible woman with a huge heart. She is working to help children with this rare condition, Sanfilippo Syndrome, so that they may receive an experimental treatment and more funding directed toward research. I am assisting her in her shoe drive that will help pay for however many shoes are collected. Please help and please donate!
