All,
Wanted to let you all know that I've been asked to share my Julie's story of battle with CF and her recent double-lung transplant at the National Convention being held by Buffalo Wild Wings in the first week of March.
Why? In October of 2011, I asked our Louisville area stores (8 total) to allow Julie's Dream Team to have 10% of all our purchases be donated directly to the CF Foundation. Those most passionate about helping us find a cure FLOCKED to Buffalo Wild Wings resulting in a donation of $2500 at the end of the 2011 year. Our team has worked tirelessly over the course of a year to build trust with BW3's. I've told them that our CF Community is passionate. If they're going to help us find a cure, we're going to purchase their products. What BW3's has learned is that Julie's Dream Team will never ask them to simply write a check to the foundation. We want to earn our donation (this gives us a chance to drink beer together and do something great at the same time). They really love the idea and they love the fact that we were able to have the corporate and franchise stores participate in finding a cure.
There are 1200-1300 owners that will attend this conference. I will share the battle that is CF, my wife's story and the story of Julie's Dream Team. The owner that took a chance on us will speak of how his business was increased 90% on average and the need for Buffalo Wild Wings to "Carry the CF Foundation Across the Finish Line" in the pursuit of a cure.
Wish us luck. There are 900 Buffalo Wild Wings in America and more coming online all the time. If I can close the deal, you all will be notified via here and by the CF Foundation. My hope is that you'll visit Buffalo Wild Wings and live your life, helping others live theirs.
God Bless and CURECF!!!
