Spring 2008 Update

I’m Just Like You is moving forward! We recently returned from Portland where we interviewed families and kids who live with psoriasis. The National Psoriasis Foundation was instrumental in arranging these interviews and worked with us to create an environment where families felt comfortable sharing their experiences of living with the disease.

Support for this segment of our production was provided by Carol and Mike Laub. We are most grateful for their generous contribution to the project. It will enable us to continue our momentum as we find more families who are impacted by psoriasis. But we need more support! By contributing to the Sparklestone Foundation you will provide us with the resources needed to complete our film and extend our reach to the greater psoriasis community. All contributions are tax deductible. Feel free to contact us if you’d like to contribute in some way towards the project. Thank You!

We now have a short preview clip of our current work-in-progress, I’m Just Like You - Kids and Psoriasis. Our filming is in high definition video format with a wider aspect ratio, so the preview has been reduced to slightly lower resolution for better compatibility with various TV displays.
