SO MUCH HAPPENS IN
MARCH.
AT THE END OF THE MONTH
THE ALA WAI WILL BE
FILLED WITH RUBBER
DUCKIES ALL IN AN EFFORT
TO HELP THOSE WITH
DISABILITIES.
HERE WITH INFORMATION ON
THE EVENT AND HOW YOU
CAN BOTH JOIN AND HELP
WITH TIM.
WE KNOW YOU'RE ONE OF
THE AMBASSADORS BECAUSE
OF OUR SON.
THIS IS A GREAT EVENT,
BEEN HAPPENING 32 YEARS
NOW.
FANTASTIC.
IT'S THE SIGNATURE
FUNDRAISER FOR THE UNITE
CEREBRAL PALSY
ASSOCIATION.
IT HELPS YOUNG KIDS.
IT HELPS ADULTS WITH
VERY VALUABLE PROGRAMS
AND SERVICES REALLY TO
HELP THEM LEAD A
POSITIVE LIFE, IMPROVE
THE QUALITY OF LIFE AND
BE A POSITIVE
CONTRIBUTOR.
NECESSARILY KNOW BUT
WHEN YOU SEE THE DUCKS,
IT'S A REALLY CLEVER WAY
ABOUT GETTING THE WORD
OUT ABOUT THIS.
THE RACE ITSELF IS A
GREAT DAY.
INTO THE ALA WAI CANAL.
AND THEY ARE CLEANED BY
THE WAY.
THE FIRST 25 OR SO WIN
SOME GREAT PRIZES LIKE
ROUND TRIP TICKETS TO
TOSHIBA TV.
EACH DUCK COSTS $10 TO
ADOPT AND THEY GO UP
THERE FROM.
MANY AS THEY WANT?
THEY CAN BUY ONE OR
THERE COULD BE
SPONSORSHIPS TO GET
SEVERAL HUNDRED OR
THOUSANDS OR HOWEVER
MANY THEY WANT.
IF PEOPLE DO ADOPT IT,
IT'S 100% TAX DEDUCTIBLE
FOR THE DUCK FOR ONE.
ALL OF THAT MONEY THAT
IS RAISED STAYS HERE IN
HAWAI'I AND HELPS PEOPLE
HERE IN HAWAI'I.
THERE'S ABOUT 4,000
PEOPLE OR SO WITH
CEREBRAL PALSY LIVING IN
THE STATE.
IT ALL GOES TO BENEFIT
THOSE PEOPLE LIVING
RIGHT HERE IN HAWAI'I.
WHAT'S THE BEST WAY
PEOPLE CAN ADOPT AND
SUPPORT?
ABSOLUTELY.
YOU CAN SEE OUR SPOKES
DUCK OUT ON THE ROAD
SOMETIMES.
HE'S LUCKY.
WE MIGHT NEED TO PUT
HIM ON A DIET.
COMING INTO TIGHT
QUARTERS IN A STUDIO
ISN'T THE BEST.
HE'S THERE.
YOU CAN FOLLOW HIM ON
INSTAGRAM AT
SPOKESDUCKUCPH.
YOU CAN ALSO GO TO
ADOPTMYRUBBERDUCKIE.ORG.
THAT'S THE BEST WAY TO
GET AN ADOPTED DUCK.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW
TOO IF YOU ADOPT A DUCK,
THE RACE ITSELF IS
SATURDAY, MARCH 30TH BUT
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE
PRESENT TO WIN.
CERTAINLY YOU CAN AND
THERE'S GREAT
FESTIVITIES STARTING
OVER AT 9:00 AT McCULL
HE'LL SHOPPING CENTER.
IT'S A GREAT DAY, A LOT
OF FUN.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE
THERE FOR THE PRIZES BUT
THE WINNERS WILL BE
ANNOUNCED THAT DAY.
IF YOU'RE NOT THERE,
YOU'LL BE CONTACTED BY
THE OFFICE.
THAT SOUNDS GOOD.
TIM AND I GO BACK,
HAVING WORKED TOGETHER
BEFORE AND EVERYTHING.
HOW'S THE FAMILY, YOUR
SON SHEA, THAT'S HOW YOU
KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT
CEREBRAL POLICY EITHER
YEAH, THE THING IS IT
CAN BE VERY MINOR TO
SEVERE.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO KNOW
WHAT IT IS NOT.
IT'S NOT A DISEASE.
IT NOT SOMETHING YOU
PASS ON TO YOUR KIDS.
IT'S NOT FATAL BUT IT IS
A CONDITION AND IT
USUALLY STARTS AT BRAIN
DAMAGE THAT HAPPENS
BEFORE, DURING OR
IMMEDIATELY AFTER BIRTH.
THE THING ABOUT SURGEON
EAST BOUND WALL PALSY,
COGNITIVELY PEOPLE ARE
VERY SMART, GO ON TO
COLLEGE BUT PHYSICALLY
IS WHERE MOST OF THE
PEOPLE HAVE THEIR
CHALLENGES.
THE THING ABOUT THE
UNITED CEREBRAL PALSY,
MY SON FORTUNATELY, HE
HAS NEVER ACTUALLY
RECEIVED SERVICES FROM
UCPA BUT I DO IT
OBVIOUSLY BECAUSE I
WOULD LIKE TO GIVE BACK
AND THERE'S A LOT OF
PEOPLE THAT BENEFIT FROM
THE ORGANIZATION.
TIM, NICE TO SEE YOU
HERE AND THANKS FOR ALL
YOU'RE DOING.
GO SUPPORT THE RUBY
DUCKIE DUCKS.
WE HAVE MORE COMING UP
ON "LIVING 808"
INCLUDING THE ULTIMATE
BRUNCH.
