My
name is Sierra Doherty, a May-2005
graduate of Alaska Pacific University and K/1 teacher at Axios Academy in
Wasilla, Alaska. While in my senior year of college, I was
introduced to a unique curriculum that enabled me to act on
an idea I've wanted to pursue for a number of years. As I proceed to
explore my interest and passion this summer, I hope to raise awareness about the
devastating effects of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and ask you to help me
generate funds for non-profit MS organizations that ease MS
symptoms and conduct research to rid MS.
To
raise MS awareness and support, I am hiking the 468-mile Colorado Trail as
you read this page right now and am asking you to join me with your pledge
of some amount of money per mile. Come with me on my website as I hike along the trail
right now! I'm updating my site at checkpoints along the
trail, so come with me and support MS awareness and research and
please give generously to those who cope with this devastating disease
every day.
