Linda Foley Fundraiser Organizer 631-728-9178 Dear Friends, Matthew Mckinnon-Reilly, a Hampton Bays 10yr old boy has had Nephrotic Syndrome since he was 2 ½ and on March 28, 2008 was diagnosed with having a pulmonary embolism in both lungs. Matthew had surgery on April 3, 2008 which is known as a Pulmonary Thromboendarterectomy at Schneider’s Children’s Hospital in New Hyde Park, NY. We have been told that this is a very rare condition; in fact, he was the first child to have this operation done in Schneider’s Children Hospital and also the 13th child in the world to have this operation performed. We have put together a fund raiser on June 21,2008 at 7:00 pm at Pork’s located on Montauk Hwy., in Hampton Bays for the family to help with medical expenses and also to raise money to help start up a foundation in Matthew’s name to raise awareness of this disease. You can help us by showing up. Your company can help us by providing funds in the form of a grant or by donating goods and services. We will be taking a full page ad out in the Southampton Press to thank all of our business for there donations and acknowledgment will be made the night of the benefit. Thank you in advance for your support. Sincerely, Mike Allen
