The Importance of Vivint Gives Back to FAST Contest

The next two weeks, it is imperative that you vote for FAST (Foundation for Angelman Syndrome Therapeutics) in the Vivint Gives Back Contest on Facebook. Its crunch time, as all contests and elections are often coined, and now more than ever FAST needs your help to assist those with Angelman Syndrome, and their families. FAST has had incredible success, in funding programs that are more likely than not, going to lead to a cure for Angelman Syndrome. Wouldn't you like to fight for something, rather than sit down, and just put up the white flag? By taking a moment out of each day, actually thirty seconds or less, you can make a difference. In the Boy Scouts, we used to call this doing a "good turn." That's what each vote is, and each twenty four hour period, you can be a part of such a positive action.

If FAST wins, it will mean a lot to Angelman families across the world. Isn't it great to be a part of something special, that shall assist those who could really use your help? Angelman Syndrome is caused by a partial deletion of chromosome 15, and FAST has helped Dr. Edwin Weeber, with a mouse project. This creature was given Angelman Syndrome, and then cured of it. That is incredible, and breathtaking research, and more will be possible if FAST wins this contest. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, to help angels, whom are known for their smiles and laughter, have a chance at a better life. Its going to, if FAST wins, provide a lot of comfort to families, whom have known of this love firsthand, and would do anything in their power to help their children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, brothers, sisters, and friends with Angelman Syndrome.

Thank you to the compassionate folks at Vivint, for having this contest, and for being willing to offer a generous donation to a worthy cause. FAST is certainly a fantastic charity, that has stepped up to the challenge, of finding a cure for Angelman Syndrome. If you have been voting, thank you and keep doing it. For those who haven't had a chance yet, now is your opportunity to step up, and stand united with the Angelman Community that's full of love and dedication. Now is not the time for complacency, or to hold the position, but rather to advance. With each vote for FAST, dreams of so many are closer to becoming a reality.
