Guest guest Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 I don't normally approach strangers in a store setting and talk about a cause. Well, sometimes you just need to get a little forward. Wearing my " Ask Me About CMT " button, I did some shopping this afternoon at my local supermarket. Thought it might be a good idea to bring a few brochures into the store in case someone actually _did_ ask. As it too often happens, no one does. I was pushing a cart down an aisle approaching a woman wearing hospital scrubs with an area hospital logo on them. 'No guts, no awareness' I thought and asked her if she had ever heard of CMT. She said she thought she had, (!) so I handed her the brochure along with my standard explanation about CMT. She said that she'd share it with her family and friends. Mission accomplished. One more person (or more) who's aware! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes her curious, which may inspire her to learn more Lenka > > I don't normally approach strangers in a store setting and talk about > a cause.
