Re: 2012 MAR Rutgers University District
For anyone attending the Rutgers district:

Have an old iPod sitting around, collecting dust? Get a fancy new phone and don't use your iPod anymore? Well put it to good use!

The non-profit organization Music and Memory needs donations of new or used iPods for the treatment of Alzheimer's patients. They personalize each playlist to the individual, finding out about their history and family to develop a mix of music to connect to their past. The results are astounding; patients light up and come back to life.

Team 11, MORT, has partnered with Music and Memory to spread the success to even further. We will be collecting iPods at all of the competitions we're attending, including Rutgers, and hope to teach Music and Memory what Gracious Professionalism is all about. Please see us in our pits if you wish to donate.
