Transplant for Trae

I’m Trae Jacob Hamilton and I was born on October 18th, 2007 at which time my doctors found that I have an extremely rare kidney disease so in February 2009 I will be having a Kidney Transplant. My doctors will be taking both of my kidneys out and giving me a new one that will be donated by my dad.

Transplant for Trae is a fund raiser to help off-set all the medical bills and travel associated with this major surgery.

Thanks to our friends at Irwin’s Bike and Sports, the Iowa Chops Hockey team and Kum and Go there are a couple of ways you can contribute to this event.

Purchase tickets to the March 21st, 2009 Iowa Chops hockey game, which will include admission to a adult league benefit game, as well as the Iowa Chops vs. Quad City Flames. Throughout both games there will be lots of autographed memorabilia up for grabs in a silent auction. Tickets for this event can be purchased at Irwin’s Bike and Sports (ask for Bill).

Purchase a discount coupon book to Kum and Go and receive over $50.00 in savings for a donation of $10.00 each.

Make a monetary donation at any Bank of the West location.

Thanks for any assistance that you can provide
