Stilke's Partylite Fundraiser Raises $380 for the Cystinosis Research Network!
Mason and Livia Stilke
Kirsten and Dave Stilke hosted a Partylite candle party on April 15 to raise money for the Cystinosis Research Network. About 30 guests arrived for a candle demonstration and to learn more about cystinosis. The Stilke's have two children with cystinosis, Mason and Livia.
Kirsten spoke to the group to educate them about cystinosis. She emphasized the importance of supporting the Cystinosis Research Network in its search for a cure. Kirsten received a positive response, and a few tears were shed as she addressed questions about her kids that friends and family were always afraid to ask.
Kirsten had brochures made with pictures of Mason and Livia on them. Each guest took 4-5 brochures and vowed to spread the word about cystinosis. When the orders came in, Kirsten made postcards for each guest thanking them for their donation.
The party raised $380 for the Cystinosis Research Network and tons of awareness! Kirsten and Dave hope to have another fundraiser next year. |
