Dear Derek:

Your support of the Colorado Friends of the LAM Foundation’s 2005 “Breath of Hope” Comedy Night could not have been more important to us. Thanks to you, this year’s event brought in over $30,000 to fund research for LAM. The Colorado Friends of the LAM Foundation will proudly contribute these funds to the LAM Foundation so that the first ever clinical drug trial, the SMILES* trial, may soon begin.

Thank you for being a sponsor of our event. You made a difference! Please note that for tax exempt purposes, if you did not attend the Comdey Night your donation is completely tax deductible.

For those who attended, only the tax deductible portion of your ticket price and any contribution you made to the SMILES trial may be considered deductible. Deductible amounts for tickets are as follows: $15 is deductible for the $35 ticket; $25 is deductible for the $50 ticket and $40 is deductible for the $75 ticket. If you require additional information, please contact the foundation at 303-666-8264.

We hope that you enjoyed the event, had a few laughs and learned a bit more about this rare, debilitating disease. We are confident that your continued support will lead us to a cure. On behalf of the families, friends and LAM patients across the globe, we thank you for your contribution to the Colorado Friends of the LAM Foundation’s 2005 “Breath of Hope” Comedy Night and the important work of the LAM Foundation.
