YOU SAW THE SIGN!
If you saw the sign, heard us on the radio or walked over a chalk message then have come to this point for a good reason!
This is our last effort to tell EVERYONE about Saturday's Event.
Keepkimhome is an effort to keep Lou Gehrig patient Kim Maibaum in her home (rather than a nursing facility.) Lou Gehrig's disease destroys the voluntary muscles but not the brain and thus Kim maintains her brilliant mind trapped in a body that she can not move on her own.
Kim loves life and spent most of it signing for the deaf community. She interpreted for people like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Henry Kissinger and Bill Clinton. She was awarded several awards for her achievements, her hard work and dedication to her profession.
Now Kim's only mode of communication is via her CNA's that translate mumbled letters into real letters then into words and then sentences. This is how she communicates her needs. This one on one attention is not provided in a nursing facility.
Kim has NO MONEY. Her funds are exhausted. She receives government assistance for her personal and medical needs but with out another income she will not be able to compensate for the help she needs. However, with your help she'll have what she needs to stay home.
SATURDAY NOVEMBER 17th 2012 AT 7PM
AT THE LUNDSTROM CENTER
(1295 North 1000 East Logan UT 84321)
We will hold a silent auction in her behalf. There will be free food, amazing music AND the Silent auction for things like: Student block meal plans, oil changes, dinner tickets, passes to the rock haus, hand crafted items and MORE!
All proceeds will go to pay off her existing mortgage so that the income from her renters will provide the steady income she needs to maintain her help rather than just cutting even with the mortgage payment.
This CAN be achieved with all of YOUR HELP! SO tell ALL of your FRIENDS and we'll see you SATURDAY!!

A night to remember!
Saturday October 13, 2012 $3060.00 was raised for Kim Maibaum. It could not have been done without the continued support of friends and family. To all those who donated time or money, we thank you. Blaine and Chloe Zollinger are the lucky winners of a beautiful art piece,"Greenriver in Red." From the Legends of Fall Collection by Jim Parrish. We thank him for his donation.

The intent of this trust is to create a supplemental and emergency fund for Kim’s benefit and not to displace assistance that may otherwise be available to her through or from various governmental assistance programs. Any assets remaining in the trust at the time of Kim’s passing will be distributed to The Learning Center for the Deaf in Framingham, MA.
To deposit money into the account, one simply need go to any Wells Fargo branch and indicate the proper name. The name is long and in the teller search it is found as: "Kimberly Ann Maibaum Special" .The person needs to mention that that account is in Utah. Zip code 84321. Once found the whole trust name will come up: Kimberly Ann Maibaum Special Needs Trust.
(We're working to have a payment option on-line, but right now we can't seem to find a way around the merchant fee. More info to come.)
