Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013“I Walk Like This”
Variety - The Children's Charity of Buffalo & Western New York, Tent 7 - is a tradition of helping children from all over Western New York. In 2013, Greg's niece, Emily Grace, was the Variety Kids celebrity child. Emily and her Uncle Greg sang “I Walk Like This” during the telethon broadcast. Their performance was a huge success and, as you can see for yourself, a heartwarming moment.
After singing this song on the telethon, people kept asking Emily's Uncle Greg where they could get a copy of his song. That inspired this fundraising idea. You may get a copy of the song in 320MP3 format RIGHT HERE! $2 from every download will be put into a fund to be presented to Variety.
Emily Grace was born 3 months premature in March of 2007. She was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. Four years later it was learned that she qualified for a procedure that would help make it possible for her to achieve her dream - to walk. It was Emily's dream that inspired “I Walk Like This.”
