“Don’t Hope For a Miracle. Make One,” is the tagline of CBS films’ upcoming release Extraordinary Measures, starring Brendan Fraser and Harrison Ford. It is inspired by the story of John Crowley, a father who defied conventional wisdom and great odds, and risked his family’s future to pursue a cure for his children’s life- threatening illness, Pompe Disease.

To celebrate Crowley’s story, there’s an opportunity to get the word about a cause that is close to you, and also possibly win some money for them. It’s so easy, all you have to do is upload an inspirational video.

• Go to the Inspirational Quilt and click on Upload Your Story
• Once your video is uploaded, you will be entered into the sweepstakes for a chance to designate the charity of your choice to receive $10,000.
• Tell your friends to vote to increase your chances of winning.

Consider something close to your heart. Is it Breast Cancer, Leukemia, SIDS, or any other non-profit that has meaning to you. This also sounds like a touching movie which comes out in Januray 2010.
