#9 Create signature drinks for five of my friends

Many of you know that I was selected by the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation as one of Nashville's "Top 30 Under 30."  I feel so honored to be a part of this great group!
 
As part of this honor, I have a goal to raise $2,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.  I'm getting close, but still need a little help. Please consider making a donation at http://www.cff.org/LWC/KellyJamerson. Every bit truly helps!

If your altruism needs a little extra motivation, here's one serious reason and one fun reason to give...

Serious...Drugs are currently being developed that could help 95% of the population that suffers from Cystic Fibrosis. You can be a part of finding that cure simply by giving me the $5 (or more) you were going to spend on overdue Redbox fees!

Fun...Everyone that makes a donation on my page will have their name entered in a drawing, and 5 lucky winners will get a signature drink created personally for them by me. I may even let you drink it next time we get together. And, it helps me check off a 2013 resolution too!
