November Update

Hello Lewy Warriors!

November is at an end and we are moving into the final month of 2022. Unfortunately, we don't have much to share in this month's update because we have been dealing with illness and various other unforseen delays over the past few weeks. With that being said, we do have a few things to share with you about the coming months and we are back to going full steam ahead as the year comes to an end.

As previously stated, we are choosing to forgo a Holiday Fundraiser this year. Instead, we are hoping that everyone will donate on their own time using the new direct donation landing page that was provided to us by Ashley and Emily at UWO. We will also be printing a limited run of CLBDI Holiday Cards that you will be able to purchase online (more on that next week). We still have some CLBDI shirts available in limited sizes too. They're a great holiday gift and are limited edition! We may never print more of this design so this is a chance to own a piece of CLBDI history and do some good! Half of all the money that we raise through card and shirt sales will be donated to LBD research at the end of the year.

In the coming weeks, you will see that we will be adding a section for CLBDI literature to our website and will offer a selection of our printed resources in PDF format. This is for everyone outside of our region who might be interested in what we do and for those of you who want to help spread the message. We will also be sharing the new donation total at the end of this month or in early January. We're excited to see what we've been able to raise since the summer and are crossing our fingers that we've surpassed another one of our donations milestones.

As mentioned in our previous blog post, we had planned to expand CLBDI to other platforms by the end of this month and have our presentation available on Youtube but, due to illness, we've been delayed. We've decided to take a bit more time to get it right, make sure everyone is back to full health, and make sure we're putting out the best possible content. So, with all that being said, we are now planning to branch out to other social media platforms in January and can't wait to share some original CLBDI content with everyone.

We've been dealing with many setbacks this month and things have been fairly quiet but we promise that we have big plans for next year and plenty of things coming your way in December.

We hope that everyone out there is happy, healthy, and staying positive. Thank you all for the support in 2022 and we'll see you again at the end of the year!
