Is this some scam foundation that you have set up so that you can retire
early... I know how these things work, I've been around the block. Seriously though, I will be happy to contribute. -Eric To: Matt Culver/HOU/EES@EES, Laura Evans/HOU/EES@EES, Michael H Garred/HOU/EES@EES, C Kyle Griffin/HOU/EES@EES, Monica Roberts/HOU/EES@EES, Christopher Smith/HOU/EES@EES, Heath Kendall/HOU/EES@EES, Brian Hoskins/Enron Communications@Enron Communications, Eric Bass/HOU/ECT@ECT, Cindy Richardson/Corp/Enron@ENRON, James Saunders/FGT/Enron@ENRON, John McCarthy/HOU/EES@EES, Debra Blake/HOU/EES@EES, Brad Bangle/Corp/Enron@Enron, Brant Reves/HOU/ECT@ECT cc: Subject: Juvenile Diabetes Foundation Walk Hi everyone, I will be *walking to cure diabetes* on November 5th, and was hoping each of you could donate on my behalf. As is written below, 84% of all donations to JDF go directly to diabetes research. Wouldn't you feel good about giving to such an efficient organization and honorable cause? I'm sure you all need a tax write-off too, right? :) You can use a copy of your canceled check for tax purposes. Also, if you donate $25 or more, you will get an Enron JDF T-shirt. Of course, donations of any amount will be greatly appreciated. Feel free to forward this message to others who might be interested in donating, as well. I will be making the rounds next week to get a head start on collecting, so please email me if you'd like to contribute and bring a check made payable to Juvenile Diabetes Foundation. Thanks in advance for your participation!

I continue to serve on the board of JDF representing Enron and will be Enron's corporate executive for this year's fundraising efforts. As many of you may already know, I am an insulin dependent diabetic myself. Even though I know how difficult this disease can be to manage with the multiple finger pricks for blood samples and several shots each day, I cannot imagine how difficult it is for a small child with this disease. Taking insulin does not cure the disease nor prevent the development of complications; insulin is simply their life support system and without it they would die. Enron continues to be a major corporate sponsor for JDF again this year. JDF is a very efficient organization in which approximately 84% of all money raised goes directly to research. Enron's goal this year is to raise $225,000 and we need your help. Enron has been the number 1 walk team for 5 years in a row and we are not ready to give up first place! We need team leaders, walkers and volunteers to help us reach our goal. The theme for the walk this year is "Knock Out Diabetes" and we would like to have you join us for this great event. The Walk is truly a blast and we had about 500 Enron people participate last year and everyone enjoyed it. If you are interested in volunteering to be a walker or a team leader, or if you would like to make a pledge, you may call any of the steering committee members listed below. If you are interested in being a team leader, please contact one of the following people immediately so that you may be included in the first important and informative training session taking place this week. Thank you very much for your support.
