Hello my name is Tysha. I was sent to you via Dr. H in CA. I just found out last week that some people I know have put together a huge benifit for my dearest friend who for the past 5yrs. has been paralized from the neck down from Lyme Disease and is in huge debt.

This benifit is scheduled for March 19th at a club with many bands playing, raffles, three bars with tip jars, and many crafts made by locals, with all proceedes going to help him & Lyme disease efforts out.

The problem is that no one in Ventura knows about Lyme, so I was asked to help as I have Lyme myself. I have been suffering for the past 10 yrs. with Lymes! I have been asked to get together some lyme related things to pass out.

Like brochers, stickers, posters, merchandise, really anything lyme related that can help this benefit show be more to help the public with Lyme awareness!

Especially since it is a epidemic here and no one knows it! If you can help me out that would be so awesome, since I need all the help i can get! I have no idea where to go to get stuff! There are already 300 people scheduled to show up!!

Again my name is Tysha, my email is [email protected] . Any help would be appreciated... even if you could point me in the right direction to get some things together!

Thank you so


EDITED- removed names. AL

Tysha,

Have you contacted CALDA. They should be able to help you.

Here is the CALDA website.

You can also get materials from the Lyme Disease Association. Click on their colorful icon on the left menu on this page.

Good luck!

Pfizer used to offer their brochures for free. I know one time I ordered a bunch and they never sent me a bill. It was a nominal amount they were requesting.

I am editing out the link I gave. I found out it is no longer viable.

Maybe you can try contacting "Global Research & Development" Groton, CT 06340

Good luck with the fundraiser!!!!

This young woman with Lyme who is a member on Lyme Friends, Ashley van Tol, has a blog and is a graphic designer....she has made some Lyme t-shirts that are pretty cool and a bumper sticker.

Here is some of the stuff she has on her site (her store):

If you clicked "contact" at the top menu bar on her page, you could ask her if you could buy some of these T-shirts in bulk to sell at the concert.
