Stand Among Friends founder Shawn Friedkin invited supporters to the Donna Summer Concert held at the Sinatra Theater at Bank of America Arena in Sunrise Sunday evening February 17, 2008. The fund raising affair drew a loyal group of 300 SAF regulars who contribute to the non profit SAF Center for the Study of Neurological Disabilities based on the campus of F.A.U.
Friedkin thanked all those in attendance and told them that "Stand Among Friends is all about helping people with disabilities to be the best they can be. We help them find answers to everyday questions, we help them find jobs, we educate the public through our TV show Life Without Limits, and we help them stay healthy with our programs like MS/yoga, Parkinson's exercise and pressure sore prevention!"
Donna Summer (her husband is on the keyboard) and her troupe of outstanding musicians produced a show filled with loud and boisterous disco music that the large audience adored. They stood, danced, cheered and applauded every number. It was a love fest happening!
FACT: 1 in 5 Americans will face the devastating effects of a neurological disability in their lifetime like: Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, ALS, MS, Spinal Cord or Brain Injury. At Stand Among Friends Center for the Study of Neurological Disabilities on the campus of Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton, we are working diligently to help all those affected so that they can live a Life Without Limits.
