FORWARD THIS EMAIL DONATE NOW EASTERSEALS.COM June 2008 Dear Inocencio, From the top: Bethany, Colin and Palmer It’s graduation time -- people are celebrating accomplishments and anticipating new opportunities. Easter Seals is celebrating too! We’re honoring the recent achievements of three former Easter Seals National Youth Representatives. Easter Seals clients have represented the organization for more than 50 years. They travel the country and share their stories, inspiring others by their experiences. Bethany and Colin DeVault served as Easter Seals Representatives in 1999, and Palmer Harston served in 2000. A lot has changed since then, but Bethany, Colin and Palmer are still supporting Easter Seals -- and they are still shining examples of how Easter Seals makes a difference in the lives of people with disabilities and their families. Bethany is off to college in the fall. Colin will soon start his sophomore year. And Palmer just graduated college and looks forward to traveling and giving back to children in need. Easter Seals congratulates Bethany, Colin and Palmer! Please show your support today to ensure that more people with disabilities can celebrate life’s milestones.
