Support Team VDF and Help Us Meet Our Goal!

Team VDF is currently in training for the 30th annual LaSalle Bank Chicago marathon on Sunday, October 7. Our runners could surely use your support; it takes a lot to run 26.2 miles! Team VDF's fundraising goal for this year's marathon is $25,000. Please help us meet this goal by supporting one of our runners. You can make a donation online at www.active.com/donate/vasculardisease. One hundred percent of all donations for the marathon are used by VDF to fight vascular disease and are tax-deductible. VDF would like to thank its sponsors for supporting Team VDF: Bard Peripheral Vascular, Cordis Endovascular, CV Therapeutics, DIOMED, W. L. Gore & Associates, and Red Robin.

So far, Michelle Newman is Team VDF's top fund raiser! Michelle has helped raise over $900 to fight vascular disease. Support her and the other team members by making a donation online at www.vdf.org. Michelle is pictured here with her husband Spencer in Costa Rica.
