About the Click for a Cure Booth

We wish to acknowledge the generosity of the Westerman Family for their contribution of the “CLICK FOR A CURE” booth to the first and second annual Kick for a Cure. The idea of this booth was generated by Kirsten who was only 8 years old at the time.  Having heard about the cause she wanted to help make a difference and came up with the idea of a fun photo booth, where event participants could dress up and have their picture taken for a donation. Kirsten managed to inspire her parents and older brother to set up a “Hawaiian Vacation” photo booth at the event.

The Westermans constructed the entire Hawaiian scene, with props and constumes galore.  They also invested in purchasing the first ever Kick for a Cure blue/green wristbands.

Not only did the Westermans donate all the items for their fabulous tropical set-up but they also donated EVERY dollar earned to the cause.    In our first annual event, Kirsten even rallied up her friends and entered the “Pink Panthers” in the girls U10 Recreational Division while her parents (John and Abby)  and big brother (Andrew) spent long hours in the hot sun manning the booth.   What is amazing is that the Westermans poured their heart into our cause despite the fact that they do not personally know anyone who has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

The Westermans have inspired many of our event participants to make a difference “one click at a time”.  We truly appreciate their support in our first two years and are thankful that Click for a Cure will be an integral part of our cause in the many more years to come!
