A Message From MIchelle Christie

On April 17, 1996, I founded No Limits for deaf children and families. Can you believe it has been 28 years since the theater program began out of my one-bedroom apartment? I can't. It's crazy to think that​ our kids performed at Carnegie Hall in November 2023 (our second time). You have been a part of the triumphs​ and obstacles, and I am immensely grateful for you taking on this journey with me. There are truly no words to express how much it means to me. I could not have done it without you! I wanted to share some exciting news with you. We have created a new fundraising effort, the No Limits National Pickleball Challenge, to help more children with hearing loss and their families in need across the nation. The link is www.PB4deafkids.com (you can scroll down to my name). ​I​ would appreciate it if you share it with everyone you know so we can make some dreams come true together. Our overall goal is $125,000, which would change hundreds of families' lives. We are hoping that ​h​undreds of people will register and play Pickleball in the month of June and help us raise funds. Instead of the ice bucket challenge that makes you cold, you can do the No Limits Pickleball Challenge and warm your hearts by helping our deaf children and families instead. If you don’t play Pickleball, you can pledge or donate to my fundraising page. My personal goal is $​10,000. Please use this link - to pledge, donate, or register for No Limits for deaf children and families. If you are a Pickleball lover, please share this at your Pickleball club, or with your friends and colleagues, as the more people who register (FOR FREE) can take the challenge, the closer we can get to our goal for the kids. All donations are 100% tax-deductible.​ I really need your help a​s well as your network of friends and family, as we want this to be a huge success! You can also post about it​ on social media. If you want to learn more or be on our Pickleball Committee, that would be AWESOME! PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH YOUR FRIENDS, COWORKERS AND FAMILY MEMBERS. DON'T FORGET TO SHARE ON SOCIAL MEDIA TOO. THANK YOU​, WITH ALL MY HEART​, FOR YOUR LOVE AND SUPPORT! ♥️Michelle Michelle Christie Founder, CEO and President NO LIMITS for deaf children and families ​310.923.4226
