We Supported Miss Wadsworth’s Team For NephCure!
By Martha’s daughter Emily was diagnosed with a disease of the kidneys in December 2011. She has experienced many complications and numerous hospitalizations. At this time, there is no cure. As the current Miss Wadsworth, Emily led a team at the NephCure Walk to fund further research towards discovering new treatments and, hopefully, a cure.

According to Martha, it was a festive event with a wonderful turn-out of family and friends. We’re excited to share that Team Miss Wadsworth raised a grand total of $1,476.00. Emily thanks everyone at GPS for sponsoring her team! If you’d like to learn more, or to make a donation, please visit the NephCure website!
