Team McCready Global Benefit – MIAMI, FL - April 10th, 2010

Team McCready is a division of the Wishlist Foundation, a Pearl Jam fan non-profit organization. Team McCready is specifically dedicated to supporting the philanthropic goals and celebrating the achievements of Pearl Jam lead guitarist, Mike McCready.

The ongoing mission of Team McCready is to utilize the collective ability of the fans of Mike McCready around the globe to affect a positive change.

Pearl Jam fans are converging in 11 cities across the globe on April 10th to reconnect with each other and do some fundraising in honor of the master, Mike McCready! The beneficiary for this amazing global event is Advocacy for Patients with Chronic Illness.

Advocacy for Patients with Chronic Illness, Inc. is the only advocacy organization in the United States that provides free information, advice and advocacy services to patients with chronic illnesses in all areas of need including health and disability insurance, Social Security disability, employment discrimination, school-based accommodations, resource location, and more.

Advocacy for Patients is celebrating its fifth year of providing free services to patients with chronic illnesses nationwide. Advocacy for Patients has served over 3000 patients -- several of whom have sought help several times over these five years -- giving away more than $5 million in free legal services to patients who otherwise would have had nowhere else to go. Advocacy's Know Your Rights handbook is now in its Fourth edition, having sold thousands of copies that have enabled patients to become their own advocates. And Advocacy's Executive Director, Jennifer Jaff, has traveled from Seattle to New York, Los Angeles to Chicago, Atlanta to Washington, DC teaching patients and health care providers to be better advocates. Advocacy for Patients is thrilled to celebrate this milestone with the Wishlist Foundation.
